Ingredients
Method
1.Preheat oven to 200°C. Line an oven tray with baking paper.
2.Spread nuts on tray. Bake 5-6 minutes, until golden brown and fragrant.
3.Transfer hot nuts to a clean tea towel. Rub vigorously to remove skins. Discard skins and roughly chop nuts. Arrange nuts evenly over same tray.
4.In a medium, heavy-based saucepan, combine sugar and water. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to high and bring to boil. Boil 8-10 minutes, without stirring, until just beginning to turn a golden caramel colour around edge. Remove from heat and swirl toffee in pan to spread colour.
5.Pour toffee over nuts to cover. Allow to cool completely. Break into pieces.
Praline can be crushed up into smaller pieces using a food processor and used to decorate cakes or sprinkled over ice-cream.
