Cashew fruit xacuti by Chef Rego from Goa

Everyone knows of the xacuti but not everyone knows where it originated. Presenting to you my twist to the Goan xacuti prepared with the seasonal cashew fruit. A spicy blend of lots of spices comes together to create this iconic dish. A dish from the traditional Goan Hindu households that is so popular across Goa and the Globe. Do try it out with the local cashews that are available in your locality.

Hello chef, I prepared the cashew xacuti it turned out very nice and my guests also enjoyed. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

[@faustafernandes6138]

Wow!!! Never even imagined cashew fruit could be cooked this way. Thank you for your mouth watering and unique recipe. Definitely going to try it out someday.

[@ChefRego]

Please do 😊

Nic to c with wonderful dish of goan cashew fruits

[@pintoreb]

Hi Chef, I’m really enjoying watching your videos. I’m Goan (family from Divar and Corjuem areas) but grew up abroad. I feel sad not being too connected to my Goan roots but your videos and the explanations of the history and your method make me feel more connected and proud to be Goan. Thank you for sharing your knowledge for future generations to enjoy, myself included. I have one comment - the camera person who does closeups using the side camera seems to have trouble getting the shots in focus. They are often out of focus and it makes seeing what you’re doing difficult. If they are able to improve that skill it would help the viewers see better what you’re doing. Take care, and please continue your good work. And one recipe request - can you explain the vindaloo dish? It’s often seen in menus abroad as a Goan dish but I would love to see how you describe it! Thank you!!!

Seems worth preparing, I thought cashew apples were only for applying salt and keeping it in the sun, then eating. Come on chef give us some more caju bonds recipes, can I ad some meat precooked in this xacuti. Thank you sir. Must work it out.

U are talking too much, just make short and sweet

[@pearlpeter2350]

Hey man, show some respect to a very renowned Chef, here. He has all the right to explain anything attached to the dish he is preparing. If you think he's talking too much, he is talking sense and not like you, having no sense and being disrespectful to a great Chef.
