BURNT ALMONDS

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a large heavy based frying pan.
• Stir over a high heat and keep stirring until eventually the water is absorbed and the almonds are coated in white sugar.
• It is important to keep stirring and gradually the sugar caramelizes, turning to toffee, hence the "burnt" almonds. If you leave them on the heat after this they really will be burnt.
• As soon as all of the sugar has turned to toffee, tip them out onto a large sheet of baking paper (silicon coated paper) laid out on your kitchen bench. It is useful to have a helper at this stage to help spread them out a bit. This makes them easier to snap apart later.
• When cool, break them apart and store in an airtight container.
