Salad
The only thing that is a little more complicated is if you have never carmalized cashews before.
Just turn heat on in pan and thrwo the sugar and cashews. The heat will naturally release oils from the nuts which helps sugar to stick. Pusha around for a few minutes. Dont leave because they can burn! They are so yummy!
