1. First step is to make some simple syrup. Simple syrup is simply equal parts of water and sugar in a pot, boiled for 5 minutes. Cook the syrup until you get a slightly thicker consistency, roughly 7 minutes.
2. Blanch your walnuts in a pot of boiling water for 30 seconds. Drain, then place walnuts into the simple syrup mixture, making sure it is evenly coated before straining it once more.
3. Fill a wok or a large pan with the oil and deep fry walnuts until the walnuts start browning.
4. Transfer walnuts into a baking sheet and leave to cool.
