Ingredients
- 4pounds organic oranges or clementines2 kg
- For the caramel:
- ½ cup; 100 g vanilla sugar
- 2tablespoons hot water
Instructions
- Remove the skin and the pith from the oranges. Using a very sharp knife, cut out the sections of the oranges, leaving any connecting pith behind. Alternatively, cut the oranges into thin slices.
- Arrange the orange sections or slices in individual dishes.
- Make the caramel: mix the sugar and the water and heat it over medium heat, rolling the pan until the mixture caramelizes evenly. Don’t be tempted to stir it once it is bubbling- it will gradually turn golden-you are looking for a deep golden color. The minute it is deep golden remove it from the heat and pour an equal amount over each dish of oranges. Your dessert is ready!
