- Ingredients
- 3 large, unwaxed Oranges (finely grated zest and juice)
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 cup caster sugar
- 2 large eggs (lightly beaten)
- ½ cup unsalted butter (diced)
Preparation steps
1.
Put the orange zest, juice, lemon juice sugar and butter in a large heatproof bowl.
2.
Place over a pan of simmering (not boiling) water and stir to dissolve the sugar.
3.
Stir in the eggs and continue stirring for about 20 minutes, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon. Do not cook for too long, as the mixture will thicken more as it cools.
4.
Pour into warmed sterilised jars, cover with waxed discs and leave until cold before sealing tightly with cellophane covers or lids. Store in a cool place and use within 1 month
