Grease a flat plate with coconut oil or line it with a parchment paper.
If using whole nuts, take them together in a mixer jar and pulse grind it to a coarse powder. Take care only to pulse grind, if ground continuously , you will end up with nut butter.
Take sugar in a heavyy bottom pan, add ¼ cup of water to it and boil.
Let the sugar reach a single-string consistency. Using a laddle, stir the sugar well. To check for string consistency , stretch a drop of syrup between your thumb and fore finger, you should see a clear 1 string forming between the two fingers.
Once the sugar reaches single-string consistency, add saffron, powdered nuts and rose water and give a brisk stir.
It will thicken up fast and come together as a single mass. That time, take it off the stove. Spread it on to the greased plate and smoothen the top with a greased spoon.
While it is still warm, make markings for cutting, using a greased knife.
Let it cool completely, break them into pieces along the marked lines and store it in an air-tight container.
