Super simple preparation taking no more than 3 mins from start to finish

Heat the oil in a small pan, but do not let it get too hot and smoke, toss in the rosemary and the salt. Heat for no more than 30 seconds or so.  Do not fry the Rosemary you need to heat it sufficiently to create the aroma.

Take the pan off the heat and poor the almonds into the oil.  Place the plan back over the heat and toss and stir the almonds until the oil starts to darken. This takes less than a minute.
