add a few robust flavours for a slightly sharp snack.
Â
2 egg whites250g, fresh basil leaves (packed)
250g, grated Parmesan cheese
450g, almonds
1 teaspoon, sea salt
½ teaspoon garlic, finely chopped
method:
1. Preheat the oven to 120°C and line a large pan with parchment paper.
2. Combine the egg whites and basil leaves in a blender. Blend on a low speed until the basil is finely chopped.
3. Add the almonds to the egg mixture, then drain the almonds in a colander. Mix the drained almonds together the grated cheese, garlic and salt in a bowl.
4. Spread evenly on the baking pan and cook for 50 minutes. Stir occasionally so that they don't stick together. Cool down and then they are ready to eat!

... Julie, what a great idea! A friend of mine will be hosting a Mediterranean-themed shindig and she's thinking about what appetizers and snacks to serve. These almonds would be perfect-- all Mediterranean flavors, but used together in a unique way. Would you mind if I passed this recipe on to her? |

... Florence: just tell your friend that she make a double batch as they can be very moreish! Simone: me neither, but I had sampled some almonds like these on a trip in Italy. |

... Being an italian food aficionado, this looks like a great appetizer with campari, or italian beer. Will try it and let you know. I have put it on my blog with a reference to yours |
