Preparation steps

1.
Cut the oranges in half and squeeze out the juice and pips. Cut away any thick white pith from the peel and finely shred the peel with a sharp knife.
2.
Roughly chop the pith and tie loosely in a piece of muslin with the orange flesh and pips.
3.
Put the shredded peel, orange and lemon juices, muslin bag and water into a large heavy-based pan. Place over a low heat and slowly bring to a boil.
4.
Reduce the heat and simmer gently for 1 1/2-2 hours, until the peel is tender.
5.
Stir in the warmed sugar until completely dissolved and then bring to a boil. Boil rapidly for about 15 minutes until setting point is reached. Skim off any scum from the surface and leave to stand for 10-20 minutes.
6.
Stir once. Pour into warm sterilised jars, cover, seal and label.
