Buttered pecans

 

			Ingredients for one jar: 200g natural pecan kernels 50g butter 1 teaspoon of salt flakes or 1/2 teaspoon of table salt 1/4 teaspoon of lemon juice

Method

• Melt the butter in a frying pan over a gentle heat until it foams, then add the pecans and stir it well.
• Sprinkle the salt on and fry it lightly for about a minute.
• Transfer the nuts to a baking tray and cook them at 180 degrees Celsius for about 20 minutes. When the pecans are golden and crunchy, remove them from the oven.
• Sprinkle lemon juice on them, give them a stir and bake for a further two minutes.
• Let the tray cool before removing it from the oven, and then store the pecans in an airtight container away from direct sunlight until they're ready to be served.
