Portokalia Se Mavrothaphne - Oranges In Red W Recipe

Recipe Ingredients :

1 karen mintzias
8 navel oranges
1/2 cup sugar
2 cup mavrodaphne or ruby port
1 bay leaf
1 clove

Recipe Directions :

Remove the zest of 2 of the oranges with a zester; or pare finely
with a vegetable peeler, then cut into thin julienne strips. With a
very sharp knife, cut off the skin and outside membrane of all the
oranges, so you have glistening orbs of golden pulp. Do this over a
bowl to catch escaping juice.

Choose a saucepan just large enough to hold 2 oranges at a time and
put in the escaped juice and remaining ingredients. Dissolve the
sugar and simmer for 5 minutes. Submerge 2 oranges at a time and cook
just long enough to warm them through - about 3 minutes. If they bob
up, place a small weighted saucer over them. Remove to a serving dish
and continue with the next pair until finished.

Boil to reduce the syrup by half, drizzle over the oranges, and chill.
