Spiced oranges
There is nothing better than fresh fruit at the end of a meal to make you feel happily self-righteous.
Ingredients
3 firm, sweet organic oranges
2 tbsp flaked almonds
2 tbsp orange juice
1 tbsp lemon or lime juice
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp icing sugar
4 large, plump dates
2 tbsp fresh mint leaves
Method
Peel the oranges with a knife, removing all the white pith, then cut crosswise into 1 cm thick slices.
Toast the almonds lightly in a dry frying pan until they smell fresh, taking care not to burn. Finely slice the dates.
Combine the orange juice, lemon or lime juice, cinnamon and icing sugar in a bowl, and whisk.
Add the orange slices and toss lightly. Serve on shallow plates, with a drizzle of the juices. Scatter with sliced dates, toasted almonds and mint.
