A delightful snack of roasted almonds coated in a flavorful spice mix, perfect for any occasion.
Heat the olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat.
Ensure the oil is evenly heated to avoid uneven roasting.
Add the almonds to the pan and stir frequently until they are golden and fragrant.
Keep stirring to prevent the almonds from burning.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sea salt, ground cumin, smoked paprika, and black pepper to create the spice mix.
Mix the spices thoroughly to ensure an even coating on the almonds.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the roasted almonds to a plate and sprinkle them with the spice mix while still warm.
Sprinkling the spices while the almonds are warm helps them adhere better.
Allow the almonds to cool completely before serving.
Cooling the almonds enhances their crunchiness.
