  3. Fried cashews. Pour a little oil into the pot, not too much. Because the color of the oil after frying cashews will become darker, it will affect the color of the dishes when used to fry light-colored dishes. If you have a lot of oil left after frying cashews, you don’t need to throw it away. You can fry darker-colored dishes.

  5. Keep turning the cashews to ensure even heating. Never use too much firepower, otherwise the cashews will be easily fried black. When the cashews are a little lighter in color than we want, stop firing. Remove the cashew nuts to control oil and let cool until set aside.
