candied orange peel

oranges

sugar

Cut the oranges into quarters and peel.  Alternatively, save peel from eating oranges in the freezer until you have enough.

Boil the peel for two hours.

Drain and weight the peel, and add the same amount of sugar and cover with just enough water.  Boil for one hour.  Leave overnight

Boil until almost all the syrup has gone.  Place on a rack and dry, preferably in a warming oven, until dry.

Slice as required, store in an airtight container.
