Steps:

• Place the sugar and water in a small saucepan and set over low heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the syrup is clear. Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature.
• To prepare the oranges, cut off the ends of the fruit so they sit flat on a cutting board. Then cut down the sides following the curve of the fruit, removing the rind and the white pith beneath. When the rind and pith are all removed, hold the fruit in one hand over a bowl and use a small paring knife in your other to cut between the membranes letting the clean orage sections fall into the bowl. Be careful not to cut down into your hand! When all the sections are cut away, squeeze the remaining fruit pulp in your hand to extract any risdual juice. Pour the orange segments and juice into a blender and blend for 10 seconds to chop up the fruit. You should have about 2 cups of juice and pulp. Combine the orange puree, cooled sugar syrup, lime juice, and spices, stir to combine well. Cover and refrigerate until cold.

Steps:

• To make the sorbet, in a small saucepan, warm 1/2 cup (125 ml) of the orange juice and the 2/3 cup (130 g) sugar, stirring until the sugar completely dissolves. Pour the mixture into a medium bowl and add the remaining orange juice and the orange-flavored liqueur. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled.
• Using a spoon, scrape out the membranes and any remnants of pulp from 8 of the most attractive juiced orange halves. Slice a small disk off the bottom of each half so it sits upright without wobbling.
• Freeze the sorbet mixture in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• To serve, spoon the just-churned sorbet into the orange halves, filling each to about 1/2 inch (1.5 cm) from the top. Place the filled orange halves on a baking sheet and freeze until firm.
• Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
• To make the meringue, in a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment (or in a bowl by hand), whisk the egg whites on low speed until frothy.

Whisk in the vanilla.

• Storage
• Before baking, the meringue-topped oranges can be kept in the freezer for up to 8 hours.
