History

Cashew Kodi Roast is inspired by traditional Andhra-style chicken roast recipes, infused with the rich flavors of roasted cashews.

Cashews have been a staple in Indian cuisine for centuries, introduced through Portuguese traders. Over time, they became a beloved ingredient in South Indian dishes, especially in Andhra Pradesh, where cashew-based gravies and roasts are a delicacy.

Andhra cuisine is known for its bold flavors and use of spices, and this dish combines the region’s signature spice blends with the crunchy texture of cashews. The result is a rich, flavorful dish enjoyed in festive feasts and special gatherings.
