5. Stir continuously until the mixture begins to caramelise.<br>
6. Pour the sesame seeds into the warm mixture and stir thoroughly.<br>
7. Transfer the mixture into a flat tin.<br>

here's another one. i dont know what 'golden syrup' is, but as far as i know, honey can be used as a straight substitute for corn syrup. it would make something sweet anyways! :LOL<br><br><a href="http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Courtyard/8761/f13.htm#17" target="_blank">http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Court...761/f13.htm#17</a><br>
