notes:

  • firstly, use fresh cashew for more crunchy masala kaju.
  • also make sure to separate the besan coated kaju and then deep fry, else it will stick to each other even after fried.
  • additionally, instead of ghee you can also use oil. however ghee adds more flavour.
  • finally, store masala kaju / spicy masala cashew in airtight container for a month when cooled completely.
