Ingredients
3 tablespoons peanut oil
2 cups whole blanched almonds
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon hot pepper flakes
1 tablespoon sugar
Preparation
Heat the oil in a heavy bottomed frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the almonds and sprinkle the 1/2 cup sugar over them. Saute until the almonds become golden brown and the sugar caramelizes.
Remove almonds from the pan and toss in a bowl with the salt, cumin, pepper flakes, and the remaining sugar.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store in an airtight box or tin.
