FROZEN ORANGES
I've been making this recipe for close on 30 years. It's great, but only as great as the ice-cream you use. Don't be tempted to use any more liqueur as the alcohol stops the ice-cream setting (I've tried!) These are wonderful for a dinner party.

Steps:
- Remove a"lid" from the top of each orange (retain the lid).
- Carefully remove all the pulp from the orange-I use a dessertspoon to do this.
- Allow the ice-cream to soften for a minute or two, then working quickly, stir through the liqueur and concentrate and fill the orange shells with this mix.
- Replace the lids.
- Freeze for at least 6 hours but preferably overnight.
- Remove from the freezer about 10 minutes before serving so they go frosty.
- These look good with a sprig of orange or lemon leaves poked into the top before serving*note-don't be tempted to use the pulp in place of the concentrate, the flavour is all wrong.
- Use the pulp for juicing or something.

Steps:
- Wash and dry orange.
- Slice off the top third of the orange and replace it.
- Put the orange in the freezer until frozen. Take it out of the freezer at the start of your meal and it will be ready to eat with a spoon by the end of the meal. Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprig of fresh mint if desired.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, juicy oranges with thin skin and no blemishes.
- Wash the oranges thoroughly and dry them completely before freezing.
- For whole oranges, pierce the skin in several places with a fork to prevent bursting.
- For orange slices, cut them into 1/2-inch thick slices and remove any seeds.
- For orange zest, grate the zest from the oranges using a microplane or citrus zester.
- Place the oranges, orange slices, or orange zest in freezer bags or airtight containers, removing as much air as possible.
- Freeze the oranges for up to 6 months.
- When ready to use, thaw the oranges in the refrigerator overnight or at room temperature for several hours.
- Use frozen oranges in smoothies, juices, cocktails, desserts, and more.
Conclusion:
Freezing oranges is a great way to preserve this versatile fruit and extend its shelf life. With a little planning, you can enjoy fresh oranges all year round. Whether you're looking to add a pop of flavor to your favorite recipes or simply enjoy a healthy snack, frozen oranges are a delicious and convenient option.
