Method
1 Butter or oil a 20cm x 30cm non-stick tin.
2 Slowly heat the sugar in a heavy saucepan with the water, milk and butter till dissolved completely. Wash any sugar crystals from the sides of the pan with a wet pastry brush.
3 Raise the heat, boil the syrup to the softball stage (113°C/235°F on a confectionery or sugar thermometer), take the pan straight off the heat and dip the base in cold water.
4 Let the syrup rest for a minute or two, then, with a wooden spoon, stir in the cardamom. Continue stirring till the syrup starts to grain and stiffen, then pour into the prepared tin.
5 While warm, mark into squares, then cut into pieces when cold. Store in an airtight container, separated by greaseproof paper.
