How to make caramelised orange slices
Want to make dried orange slices for Christmas decorations or garnishing drinks? Using the sharpest knife you have, carefully cut a whole orange into thin slices. Line a baking sheet with non-stick baking paper, then spread out the citrus slices (no overlapping) and dry out in a very low oven (90ºC fan/gas ¼ or lower if possible) for 3-4 hours, turning occasionally.
