About Fried cashews

Fried cashews are a flavorful snack or culinary ingredient, often associated with Asian and Indian cuisines. Prepared by pan-frying or deep-frying raw cashews in oil or butter, these nuts take on a golden color and a rich, nutty taste. They may be seasoned with salt, spices, or herbs to enhance their flavor. Cashews are a good source of healthy fats, protein, vitamins, and minerals such as magnesium, copper, and zinc, which support bone health and immune function. However, frying increases their calorie content and may add unhealthy saturated fats depending on the cooking oil used. Consumed in moderation, fried cashews can provide an energy boost and add texture to dishes or snacks. For a healthier option, they can be air-fried or lightly sautéed with minimal oil.
