    I thought of making shallow fried cashews and changed my mind to make this microwave version of almonds. The pictures were clicked and edited in a hurry before I left. I am editing the post from my mobile and if there are any typos or jumbled up instructions, let me know. Here's a simple, quick and easy snack.

    Ingredients

    • ½ cup Whole Almonds
    • ¼ - ½ tsp. Oil
    • ¼ tsp. Chili Powder (adjust to taste )
    • ⅛ - ⅙ tsp. Salt ( adjust to taste )
    • ⅛ tsp. Cumin Powder

    Preparation

    • Take almonds in a microwave safe wide bowl.
    • Add rest of the ingredients and toss to mix.
    • Microwave for 1 minute, remove and mix well.
    • Put it back in the microwave and roast for another 30 seconds.
    • Mix well and keep aside for few seconds or a minute. Almonds will continue to roast.
    • Serve as a snack.

    Note:

    • I roasted for a minute and then for ½ minute. I could hear almonds pop at the end of 1 minute and again at the end of 30 seconds. I would recommend roasting for 45 seconds and then in increments of 15-20 seconds until almonds and light brown and toasted.
    • I mentioned approximate measures for the spices. Adjust to taste.
    • Add any mix of spices to your liking.
