Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet.
- Whisk together the sugar, Cajun seasoning and egg white in a medium bowl until thoroughly blended and slightly foamy. Add the nuts and toss to coat evenly. Spread on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes. Nuts will be fragrant and slightly darker but still a bit moist; they?ll crisp as they cool.
- Cool completely on the pan. Nuts will keep in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line a baking pan with parchment.
- Mix the sugar, Cajun seasoning and cayenne together in a small bowl. If your Cajun seasoning does not contain salt, add 3/4 teaspoon salt.
- Mix the warm bacon fat or butter with the garlic in a large bowl. Add the almonds, cashews, pecans and peanuts and toss to coat well.
- In another large bowl, whisk the egg white vigorously until foamy. Add the nuts to the egg white and toss to coat. Add the seasoning mix and toss to coat.
- Spread the nuts on the prepared baking pan in a single layer. Bake, stirring every 10 to 15 minutes, until glossy and lightly toasted, about 1 hour. Cool completely; the nuts will crisp as they cool.
SWEET, SALTY, SPICY PARTY NUTS
I find this technique much easier than the stovetop pan method. You'll get beautiful, perfectly frosted nuts that are roasted evenly, with no bitter burned spots.

Steps:
- First, combine all the ingredients for the Cajun seasoning. Mix the prawns with the buttermilk and 3 tbsp of the Cajun seasoning in a large bowl, then set aside.
- To make the sauce, combine all the ingredients in a small bowl. Season and set aside. Combine all the ingredients for the coating in a separate bowl with the remaining Cajun seasoning and a pinch of salt, then set aside.
- Take one prawn at a time, gently shake off any excess buttermilk mixture, then dip into the coating using a fork, turning to ensure it is fully covered before transferring to a plate. Leave to rest for 15 mins.
- Fill each glass almost to the top with lettuce, then spoon 2 tbsp of the sauce into each. Divide the avocado slices between four martini glasses, arranging them in a fan against the rim of each glass, so the tops are sticking up over the rims.
- Heat a 10cm depth of oil in a shallow saucepan or deep-fat fryer until it reaches 180C, or when a cube of bread dropped into the oil browns within 20 seconds. Fry the coated prawns in batches of 10 for 4-5 mins per batch until golden and crisp. Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper using a slotted spoon and leave to drain. Repeat until all the prawns are cooked, then season with salt and divide between the glasses. Sprinkle over the chives.
