Almonds are a rich source of vitamin E and also contain dietary fibre, B vitamins, essential minerals and monounsaturated fat which potentially may lower LDL cholesterol.. About 20% of raw almond is high quality protein, a third of which are essential amino acids.
While the almond is often eaten raw or toasted, it is also a component of various dishes. Almonds are the base ingredient of Mughalai style curries. Almond flakes are added to many sweets such as Sohan Barfi and are usually visible sticking to the outer surface. Badam Halwa is a sweet made from almonds. Along with other nuts, almonds can be sprinkled over breakfasts and desserts, particularly muesli or ice cream based dishes.
