Cashew Nut Praline

Line a tray with buttered baking paper. Use a smallish saucepan with a long handle for caramel.

Add nuts mixed with cinnamon and swivel the pot to cover all with caramel.

Pour out onto baking paper.

Leave to cool.

Once it has set hard, bash with a meat mallet into shards. See technique pic.

Lassi

Pour into smallish glasses and decorate with nutty praline.
