Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Combine 4 cups raw cashews, 15 dried chiles de árbol, 10 makrut lime leaves cut into 1/4" slices, 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, 1 tablespoon kosher salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons ground ancho chiles in a large bowl; toss to coat. Spread nut mixture in an even layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Roast, stirring occasionally, until cashews are evenly toasted and fragrant, about 20 minutes. Let nut mixture cool completely on sheet on a wire rack. Transfer nuts to a large bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons finely grated lime zest, making sure to evenly distribute spices and zest. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
FRIED CASHEWS WITH LIME ZEST AND CHILE
This is my take on a popular bar snack in Thailand: freshly fried cashews tossed with salt, chiles, scallions, and lime zest. Simple but so good with a beer.

Steps:
- Fill a small saucepan with 1 inch oil and set over medium heat. Line a plate with paper towels and set it near the stove.
- When the oil is shimmering-hot, carefully add the cashews and fry, stirring constantly, until light golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Keep in mind: The cashews will continue to cook after being removed from the oil and become a darker shade of brown, so it's best to remove them when they are still a little pale. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cashews to the paper towels to drain.
- Place the hot cashews in a serving bowl and sprinkle evenly with the salt and brown sugar, tossing to coat. Add the scallions, chile powder, and lime zest and toss once more. Serve warm.

CHILE CHICKEN WITH CASHEWS
This dish is wonderful to have for dinner on a cold, stormy evening. I serve this with plain steamed rice and a vegetable. My Flash-cooked Greens with Garlic, #65735 goes really well with this. Recipe is from 'A Spoonful of Ginger' by Nina Simonds.
