Description
Roasted smoked almonds are a great snack – typically served in Spanish bars with a nice cold beer or some Tinto de Verano. We love to make them at home.
Ingredients
7 oz. (200g) raw almonds*
1 tbsp. flaky sea salt*
1/2 tsp. smoked paprika powder* (Pimentón)
1 tbsp. olive oil
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F). Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Place the almonds on the baking sheet and let them roast for about 8-10 minutes until they get a bit darker and fragrant. Be careful, they can burn easily.
2. While the nuts are roasting, combine the salt and the smoked paprika powder in a mortar and grind to combine. It does not have to be a fine powder just well combined.
3. Take the almonds out of the oven and transfer them to a bowl. Add olive oil and mix until all almonds are covered – add some more oil if needed. Add the salt-paprika mix and toss until all almonds are covered with the spices. Let cool down and serve.
Notes
¡Buen provecho!
