ITALIAN ORANGE SLICES

Steps:

• Slice orange in half, top to bottom. Then slice each half into 1/4 inch thick slices, leaving rind on. Discard any slices that have more rind than fruit.
• Arrange slices around the perimeter of a serving dish, slightly overlapping. Alternatively, you can arrange slices on individual serving dishes (luncheon sized), using one orange per dish.
• Lightly drizzle orange slices with olive oil, and then lightly sprinkle with the ground black pepper.
• Serve immediately.
• Note: do not allow the olive oil to soak into oranges. The olive oil is meant to be a subtle flavor in the dish, and not the main flavor. Do not put the olive oil on the dish more than one minute before serving. Most of the oil should be left behind on the dish after eating.

DRIED ORANGE & LEMON SLICES

Steps:

• Arrange the citrus slices over two baking trays lined with baking parchment so they're in a single layer. Heat the oven to 110C/90C fan/gas ¼. Bake for 2 hrs until firm and dry, turning the trays around halfway through. Check after 1 hr 15 mins, removing any orange slices that are drying out too quickly, then continue to cook the rest.
• Leave to cool completely on the tray, then package with the garnishes of your choice.
