Rinse and fine chop curry leaves or any herbs of your choice. Preheat oven at 360 For 180 C for 15 mins. Grease a baking tray or line it with a parchment paper or foil.
Add cashews to a mixing bowl and rinse them well under running water. Drain the water completely.
To the cashews, add salt, ginger garlic, chaat masala, curry leaves, ajwain and red chilli powder. Mix them well.
Then add gram flour and rice flour. Begin to coat the cashews with the flour. At this stage there will be a lot of dry flour.
Sprinkle 1 to 2 tablespoons water and mix well adding more only as needed. All of the cashews should be coated well with the dough. Avoid adding too much water as the dough comes off the cashews. Check step-by-step picture.
Taste test the dough and sprinkle some salt if you prefer. Lastly spray or pour oil and gently mix. Do not overmix else the dough will begin to clump & come off the cashews.
If all of the cashews are not coated well with the masala, then you can sprinkle more flour on top and mix gently.
Spread them gently on a baking tray. If any of the cashews aren't covered with the masala, coat them with the dough. Roast them at 180 C for 7 mins.
After 7 mins, give a gentle stir and continue to bake for another 8 to 9 mins until crisp and golden. Adjust the timing as needed depending on your oven. If they are still soft, bake them a little longer. Keep checking after baking for a total of 15 mins.
Heat ¼ cup oil on a medium heat in a small deep kadai. When the oil turns hot, loosen the cashews from one other and add a few at a time. Fry on a medium heat until golden and crisp. Towards the end, fry on low heat for a golden color. Remove to a colander.
Place them in the air fryer basket and air fry at 180 C for 5 mins. After that gently separate any large clumps and continue to air fry for 3 mins.
They are done when they turn deep golden. They will be slightly soft when done but will firm up and become crunchy after cooling. Adjust the timing as needed, mine is done at 8 mins.
Cool masala cashews completely and store in an air tight jar.
