SPICY FRIED CASHEWS

      Title: SPICY FRIED CASHEWS
  Categories: Oriental, Fruits/nuts
       Yield: 8 Servings
  
     1/2 lb Raw cashews
       1 c  Oil, preferably peanut
       1 ts Salt
     1/2 ts Freshly ground black pepper
     1/2 ts Chili powder
     1/4 ts Five spice powder
  
   HEAT A WOK OR LARGE DEEP PAN until it is hot, then add the oil. When
   the oil begins to smoke lightly, deep-fry the cashew nuts for 2
   minutes or until they begin to turn lightly brown. While the cashew
   nuts are browning, start another frying pan heating. Remove the nuts
   from the oil with a slotted spoon and add them directly to the frying
   pan. HINT: Take the cashew nuts out of the oil when they are lightly
   browned as they continue cooking even after they are taken out of the
   oil. Save the oil in which the nuts have been cooked, as it can be
   used again. Add the salt, pepper, chili powder and five spice powder
   and stir-fry for 2 minutes or until the cashew nuts are well coated
   with the spice. Allow to cool and serve with drinks.
