Candied Oranges

A sweet treat that reminds me of orange marmalade.  Great for snacking or decorating desserts!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup water
• 1 large and 1 small orange, sliced

Method:

• Add sugar to water and bring to a boil to dissolve.   Then lower the heat to a gentle simmer.

• In the mean time, slice oranges.

• Add oranges to the sugar syrup and simmer for 30-40 mins till the liquid has reduced by half

• Cool orange slices on a wire cooling rack (place the rack on a baking sheet, there will be drips of syrup to clean up)

• Store in an air-tight container for up to a week.  For longer storage, refrigerate.
