Walnut Praline, Topping for Desserts
by Tarla Dalal

A wonderful ingredient that enhances the flavour and texture of recipes such as Mount Pleasant Cake .

Walnut praline is very easy to make but requires a lot of caution while making it, so give it your 100 % attention. It can be made in advance but make sure you store it in an air-tight container.

Walnut Praline, Topping for Desserts recipe - How to make Walnut Praline, Topping for Desserts

3/4 cup roasted and chopped walnuts (akhrot)
3/4 cup sugar
oil for greasing

Method

Heat the sugar in a broad non-stick pan and cook on a medium flame for 5 to7 minutes or till the sugar melts, while stirring continuously.
Remove from the flame, add the walnuts and mix well.
Spread the mixture on a greased flat surface and allow it to cool and harden.
Scrape it out using a palate knife and coarsely powder it using a mortar-pestle (khalbatta).
Store in an air-tight container and use as required.

Handy tips:

As sugar caramelizes quickly, make sure you pay attention during the melting process at step 1.
Be very careful while making this recipe as hot praline mixture can cause burns very easily.

This walnut praline recipe is just so crispy and perfect to put as a topping on desserts, I make this and store in an air-tight container and when I have unexpected guests coming some brownies and ice creams are topped with these and served...
