Sugar Cashewnut Adhirasam is one of the new variety of adhirasams which you can try for this Diwali instead of the usual ones. I learnt this recipe from my sisters mother-in-law. Thank you Kanchana Maami for this lovely Vellore Regional Recipe. It tastes good and is rich in calories because of the cashewnuts. Try this cashewnut sugar adhirasam and enjoy this Diwali.

6. Deep fry the adhirasams in hot oil. Always use a medium flame and fry till you get a light golden colour.
