Categories     Snack, Treat

Time 15m

Yield Serves 6 (3 gift bags)

Number Of Ingredients 5

600g caster sugar
1 tbsp fennel seeds
1½ tsp dried chilli flakes
350g mixed nuts (we used a mix of brazils, macadamias, pecans, pistachios and walnuts)
1½ tsp flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Put the sugar and 150ml water in a pan, bring to the boil, then reduce by half, but don't let it caramelise - remove swiftly from the heat if this begins to happen.
  • Tip the fennel seeds and chilli into a mortar and gently crush using a pestle (or use a heavy saucepan and a rolling pin) to just crack the seeds and break down the chilli a little.
  • Add the fennel and chilli to the sugar along with the nuts and 1½ tsp sea salt, stirring quickly to crystallise the sugar. Scrape the nuts out of the pan and on to a baking sheet lined with non-stick parchment. Leave to cool.
