Ingredients
- 1 blood orange
- 100 g best-quality dark chocolate
Chilling time 1 hour
Instructions
Place the orange in a saucepan of water and bring to the boil. Cook for 20 minutes or until soft but not collapsed. Remove the orange and set aside to cool slightly.
Slice the top and bottom off your orange, then slice in half from top to bottom. Slice into thin wedges and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Pop in the oven for 5 minutes just to dry the segments out a little.
In the meantime, melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water and stir until smooth.
Dip the segments in the melted chocolate, then return to the lined tray. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until set.
