| Peel 300 g walnuts. If the kernels are large, chop roughly with a broad-bladed knife. |
![]() |
| Put a frying pan on high heat without fat. Roast nuts while stirring continuously to prevent burning, for 4 or 5 minutes. They should brown slightly, but without smoking or burning. |
![]() |
| Turn down the heat. Add 3 tablespoons caster sugar, it will melt and quickly caramelize. |
![]() |
| Continue stirring, still over low heat, until all the nuts are coated with caramel but not burned. | ![]() |
| When nuts are well caramelized, tip out the nuts onto your working surface to stop the cooking quickly. Stir nuts with a fork to prevent them sticking together while they cool. Wait until they are cold before eating, they're better... |
