Sugared Walnuts

Directions

1. 1
   Blanch walnut halves for 30 seconds. Drain.
2. 2
   While still slightly damp, dredge nuts in sugar.
3. 3
   Spread them out to dry. Heat oil in wok to about 200° or until a test walnut browns in about 30 seconds.
4. 4
   If walnut is too dark, oil is too hot. Deep-fry nuts, 1/2 cup at a time. Sugar will melt and form a thin, hard outer shell.
5. 5
   Cool and cover until ready to serve.
6. 6
   Serves 4.
