Ingredients

  • Feta cheese and orangette pancakes
  • 1 box (wholegrain) pancake mix
  • Feta cheese (to taste)
  • Orangettes, chopped (recipe below)
  • Mint, chopped
  • Blood orangettes
  • 2 blood oranges
  • 2 cups caster sugar (1 1/2 cups for syrup; 1/2 cup for rolling)
  • 1/2 cup water

Method

  • Make pancake mix. To this, add some crumbled feta cheese and chopped orangettes
  • Fry and serve topped with chopped mint and maple syrup
  • To harvest the peels, cut each orange length ways into 4 quarters.
  • Gently cut out the pulp (you could reserve it to make 'orangeade' or a dressing) with a knife and clean the inside as much as you can. Be careful as my blood oranges were a bit delicate
  • In a pan, combine 1 1/2 cups of the caster sugar and the water. Bring to the boil and add the peel and reduce heat to simmer. Simmer until peels are translucent, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove peels from the sugar syrup using a slotted spoon and roll in the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar. Set on a rack to dry, for a few hours or overnight
  • When dried, store in an air-tight container
