Caramelised oranges

Caramelised Oranges

Method

 
1. Peel the oranges, carefully removing any pith, and slice into rounds.

2. Place the oranges in a large, heatproof serving dish and drizzle with the Cointreau.

3. Place the water and sugar in a small saucepan. Heat gently, stirring, until the sugar has dissolved.

4. Bring to the boil and cook without stirring until the sugar syrup caramelises, turning a rich golden colour.

5. Pour the syrup over the oranges and set aside for at least 1 hour.

6. Just before serving, garnish the oranges with the pine nuts and chopped mint.
