1. For best results, weigh the ingredients with a digital scale
2. Roast the nuts in a preheated oven at 350F or 180C for about 15 minutes or until golden brown, turning them in between to ensure even browning. The nuts must be hot when mixed with the seasonings. As the number of nuts is small, I used my mini electric oven to roast the nuts. It's best to roast the almonds first just for 2 to 3 minutes then add in the other nuts. This is because almonds actually take a little longer to roast. I found that when I roast all the different nuts together, almonds always turn out softer than the rest.
3. In a bowl, mix all the seasonings until well combined then set aside.
4. Heat the oil over the stove until hot then pour over the seasonings. Mix well then add the hot roasted nuts. Mix until all the nuts are well coated. The only exception is that for the curry flavor, add the curry and kaffir lime leaves into the oil then heat the oil until hot. This brings out the flavors more effectively. Then pour onto the seasonings and mix to combine. Add the fresh lemon juice then mix again to combine. Lastly, add the hot roasted nuts and mix until all the nuts are well coated.
5. The additional 1 tbsp of monk fruit for the Cinnamon flavor is to be added after the nuts have been mixed with the seasonings. This makes the nuts look a little drier and the sweetener is more visible.
6. Pour the nuts onto a tray. Spread them out and let them cool and dry up.
7. Store the nuts in an airtight container.
