Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup unsalted dry-roasted peanuts
2 tbsp asian fish sauce ( preferably tiparos brand)
1 tsp chili powder
1/8 tsp cayenne
1 1/2 lb winesap or gala apples (3 to 4)
1 1/2 lb mutsu (also called crispin) or golden delicious apples (3 to 4)
1/2 lb slab bacon , any rind discarded , cut crosswise into 1/2-inch lardons (sticks)
3 tbsp fresh lime juice
16 canned lychees
1/2 cup chopped scallions at room temperature

Directions:

Make chili nuts: Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
Stir together all chili nut ingredients in a metal pie plate. Bake, stirring occasionally, until liquid is absorbed and nuts are coated with spice mixture and dry, about 20 minutes. Cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
Make salad while nuts bake: Warm apples in a large bowl of warm water, turning occasionally, about 15 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
Meanwhile, cook bacon in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp, about 12 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and reserve 6 tablespoons fat in skillet.
Using slicer, cut apples into 1/8-inch-thick slices into a large bowl, rotating apple a quarter turn each time you reach core, then continuing to slice until left with nothing but core. Gently toss with lime juice.
Heat fat in skillet over medium heat until hot, then pour over apples and gently toss with bacon and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Divide among 8 shallow bowls and sprinkle with lychees, scallions, and chili nuts.
Cooks' notes: ·Chili nuts can be made 1 week ahead and cooled completely, then kept in an airtight container at room temperature. ·Bacon can be cooked 3 hours ahead and chilled in fat, uncovered, until cool, then covered. Reheat over medium heat.
