Curried Walnuts

Ingredients:

1 cup sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon hot curry powder 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper Grated rind of 2 oranges 2 cups walnut halves Butter

Instructions:

1. In a small heavy-bottomed pot combine sugar, salt, curry powder, cayenne and orange rind. Stir well. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally with wooden spoon until sugar melts and turns golden, about 15 to 20 minutes. Do not allow the mixture to boil or it may burn. Stir in the walnuts and coat with sugar glaze. 2. Generously butter a cookie sheet. Spread the walnuts on the sheet. Set aside until the candy hardens and cools. Using a buttered knife break the nut mixture into bite-size pieces.

Makes about 20 servings.

Note: Note: You can make the nuts a day in advance and store in a container with a tight-fitting lid.
