Beer and Cashews

After a good walk in the countryside on a late summer's Sunday morning there are few greater pleasures than a glass or two of Suffolk beer, in this case a Greene King IPA served in an Adnams 'Ghost Ship' glass.

The accompaniment is a small bowl of salted roasted cashews, a snack which goes back in my life to the days in Mombasa when my mother always had a large bag of locally-grown raw cashews which were great when mixed with raisins but which Ouma the cook would also roast and salt.
