- 2 lit milk
- 3 oranges peeled and the segments separated
- 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 2 tsp orange zest
Pour the milk into a heavy bottomed saucepan, simmer over a low flame till the milk reduces to almost one third in volume. Stir in between.
Once the milk has reduced, add in the sugar. Give it a hearty stir, if you like it sweeter, feel free to indulge - add some more sugar !!
Allow the milk to cool to room temperature. Stir in the orange juice, add the orange zest and the orange segments. Give it a gentle mix.
Refrigerate at least for 2-3 hours. Serve chilled.
