An oriental sweet which is called as the poor man's complete food. It can be stored anywhere for a very long time without getting rancid etc. In fact the longer it keeps the better it becomes. Very easy to prepare! Excellent with bread.

Steps:
- In a thick bottomed saucepan put the sugar and the water over a slow burner until the sugar dissolves. At this stage it can be stirred but not any more after it boils.
- Let it boil until a sugar thermometer shows 140 deg Celsius.
- Meanwhile in a heat proof container mix the tahini, almonds and vanilla.
- As the sugar mixture reaches the required temperature (140) pour it onto the tahini mixture in a slow steady stream whilst mixing well.
- As soon as the mass solidifies transfer it to an airtight container and store when cool.
- PS. After storing some oil oozes out but it does not impair its goodness.
- Enjoy.
