Serves: 6
Ingredients
  • 4 large navel oranges
  • 250g caster sugar
  • 125ml water
  • pinch of cinnamon
Instructions
  1. Peel the oranges with a knife so there is no white pith.
  2. Slice the oranges in 5mm circles and arrange on a platter in one layer
  3. In a saucepan, place the sugar, water and cinnamon on a high heat.
  4. Bring to the boil and don't stir the mixture at all, swirl only, if you must.
  5. When the toffee is golden amber colour it is ready. Too pale will have no flavour, too dark is bitter.
  6. Carefully drizzle the toffee in a thin layer over the top of the oranges.
  7. Chill in the fridge until ready to serve.
  8. A good dollop of tangy greek yoghurt will cut through the sweetness nicely.
