Method

Prepare the nuts.
Measure 1/4 cup (about 30 grams) of mixed nuts including almonds, cashews, and walnuts. You can use raw or roasted nuts based on your preference.
Tip: If you prefer, lightly toast the nuts in a dry pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes to enhance their flavor. -
Peel the orange.
Take one medium orange and peel off the skin carefully. Remove any white pith as much as possible to reduce bitterness.
Tip: Use a small knife to score the orange peel into sections before peeling to make it easier. -
Segment the orange.
Separate the orange into individual segments by gently pulling them apart. Check for and remove any seeds.
Tip: If you want a neater presentation, you can cut the segments free from the membrane using a small knife. -
Serve.
Place the mixed nuts in a small bowl or plate and serve alongside the orange segments for a balanced and tasty snack.
Tip: Enjoy immediately for the freshest taste and best texture.
Pro tips
- Store nuts in an airtight container in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness.
- To add variety, sprinkle a little cinnamon or a drizzle of honey over the orange segments.
