Loukoumia (Turkish delight or lokum)

Dissolve the corn flour or niseste in 2 cups of water. 

Put the rest of the water, sugar and the gelatin in a pot and add the corn flour mixture.

Place over heat and stir until it boils. 

Lower the heat and continue stirring for at least 15 more minutes.

Remove from heat and add the almonds and the flower water. 

Let it cool, stirring every once in a while. 

Empty the mixture in a shallow tray (about the height of the loukoumi). 

As soon as it cools completely cut into bites and dust them with icing sugar.
