I've never seen raw cashew nuts

They are usually found in the baking aisle near the raisins and
coconut not the snack aisle where the roasted salted ones are.

Title: Sweet Cashew Rolls
Categories: Desserts, Pastry, Nuts
Yield: 12 Servings

6 sl Filo pastry or
2 sl Puff Pastry, thawed
1 1/2 c Raw cashews
1/2 c Brown sugar
1/2 c Caster sugar
1/4 c Water
1 ts Lemon juice
1/2 ts Cinnamon
1 pn Nutmeg
Olive oil

Preheat oven to 180 C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

Put cashews, brown sugar and spices into a food processor. Mix
well until the nuts are finely chopped, but not completely
ground. Transfer the cashew mixture to a medium bowl. Mix caster
sugar lemon juice and water in a small saucepan. Bring to the
boil then reduce heat. Simmer 10-12 minutes, until the mixture
starts to thicken and become syrupy (the lemon juice prevents the
sugar crystallizing). Pour over the cashew mixture and mix well.

If Using Filo Pastry: Spread one sheet lightly with olive oil and
place a second sheet of pastry on top. Brush the second sheet
with oil, repeat with a third sheet of pastry, then fold in half
to form a square. Repeat with the remaining pastry. Spread cashew
mixture thinly and evenly over the pastry, except for 2cm at one
end of the pastry. Roll up tightly. Brush the 2cm border with
olive oil to stick the pastry together. Cut each roll into 4-6
lengths.

If Using Puff Pastry: Spread cashew mixture thinly and evenly over
the pastry, except for 2cm at o ne end of the pastry. Roll up
tightly. Brush the 2cm border with olive oil to stick the pastry
together. Cut each roll into 6 lengths.

Bake 12-15 minutes, until pastry is golden brown. Allow to cool
for at least 15 minutes, because the syrup will be very hot and
could burn your tongue!
