How to use up leftover cashews

Nut butter
Whizz 250g cashew until smooth in a food processor [about 10 minutes], then add a pinch of salt and whizz briefly. Wonderful on sourdough toast.
Crunchy coleslaw
Toast the cashews on a baking tray for 10 minutes at 180C/160C/gas 4. Roughly chop, then add the nuts to an Asian-style coleslaw for extra crunch.
