Pistachio Brittle

Ingredients
- ¼ cup pistachios roasted salted pistachios, shelled and roughly chopped
- ¼ cup superfine granulated sugar or caster sugar

Instructions
- Place the sugar and water in a small saucepan over a medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolved and the mixture is boiling.
