675g sugar
100g cornflour
30g powdered gelatine
25g icing sugar
2 tbsp rose water
1/2 tsp red food colouring
Put the sugar and 300ml of water into a large bowl. Mix 75g cornflour with 200ml cold water, stir then add to the sugar. Sprinkle the gelatine over and mix well. Microwave at 100% until bubbling, stirring every two minutes. Remove from the microwave and stir well. Microwave at 30% for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Remove from the microwave and stir well. Line a dish with clingfilm. Mix the remaining cornflour and icing sugar, sprinkle some into the bottom of the dish. Add the rose water and colouring to the bowl, stir well, pour into the lined dish. Allow to set in a cool place overnight. Dust a chopping board with some of the cornflour and icing sugar mix, carefully tip out the set Turkish delight. Cut to desired size, dust with cornflour and icing sugar mix, store in a box with pieces of baking parchment between layers.
