Brined and Roasted Rosemary-Chilli Almonds

Ingredients for Brined and Roasted Rosemary-Chilli Almonds

• 50g kosher salt

• 8 sprigs rosemary, divided

• 8 dried chillies de árbol, divided

• 675g almonds

• 2 tablespoons plus 120ml olive oil

• Flaky sea salt (such as Maldon)

Bring kosher salt, 2 rosemary sprigs, 4 chillies, and 950ml water to a boil in a medium saucepan, stirring to dissolve salt. Add almonds and remove from heat; cover and let sit 24 hours.

Preheat oven to 191°C. Drain almonds; discard rosemary and chillies. Spread out almonds on a rimmed baking sheet; add remaining 4 chillies and drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil. Toss to coat. Roast almonds, tossing occasionally, until dried out and completely toasted through and fragrant, 45-55 minutes. Let cool.

Meanwhile, pick leaves from remaining 6 rosemary sprigs. Heat remaining 120ml oil in a small saucepan over medium. Working in batches, fry rosemary leaves until bright green and crisp, about 30 seconds. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels to drain. Add fried rosemary to almonds, season with sea salt, and toss to combine.

Do ahead: Almonds can be roasted 3 days ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
