How to Make Almendras Saladas Salted Almonds Tapas
- Heat 1 inch of olive oil in a saucepan to 380°F (193°C). Use a thermometer to ensure accurate temperature.
- Add 1 cup of almonds to the hot oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until lightly golden brown.
- Remove almonds from oil with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- While still warm, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of sea salt and 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika over the almonds.
- Toss gently to coat evenly.
- Let cool slightly before serving in a small bowl as a delicious tapas offering.
