Sugar coated peanuts

500g raw peanuts (with red skins on)
2 cups sugar
2 cups water
1 tsp pink food colouring

Combine all ingredients in large, heavy frying pan. Do not stir at all. Shake pan a little to distribute food colouring. Bring to boil, boil steadily 10mins without stirring. Remove from heat. Stir with a fork until peanuts become sugar coated. Turn out and cool on tray.
