ORANGES SIMMERED IN RED WINE
Steps:
- Cut a slice off the top and bottom of each orange to expose the flesh. Cutting from top to bottom, following the contours of the orange, completely remove the peel and white pith. Discard the peel and set the oranges aside. In a saucepan, combine all of the remaining ingredients except the mint leaves. Heat to a simmer. Add the whole peeled oranges and simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes, turning the oranges every 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool to room temperature in the liquid, turning occasionally. Chill. To serve, cut each orange crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Spread the slices, overlapping them, on small serving plates. (The outsides of the oranges will be redder than the insides.) Drizzle a little liquid over each plate and sprinkle with mint.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200C, fan 180°C Score a crisscross pattern into the duck fat using a sharp knife. Rub the soy sauce into the flesh side of the duck and season.
- Heat a heavy frying pan and place the duck, skin-side down. Keep the heat on medium-low and let the fat slowly melt away for 8 minutes or until the skin is thin and crispy. Turn over to brown the other side of the meat for a minute and then remove from the pan. Arrange in a baking dish and cook in the oven for 10 minutes, or 12 minutes if your duck breasts are on the large side. Remove from the oven, cover with foil, and rest for 10 minutes.
- While the duck is resting, discard most of the duck fat from the frying pan, leaving just enough to coat the bottom. Add the shallots to the pan and season. Fry for 2 minutes, then add the vinegar and sugar and bring to the boil. After a minute, once syrupy, add the oranges to warm through. Remove from the heat. Serve the duck with the orange sauce and some chopped parsley, if you like.

VEAL WITH ORANGE SAUCE
From fridge to table, a really quick mid-week recipe with only a few ingredients that are readily on hand: veal cooked in an orange and wine sauce. Adapted from 'Colour Me Healthy' by Rita Erlich and Dr Alice Murkies and an earlier recipe of my own. When I came across this recipe in 'Colour Me Healthy', I dug out a recipe I'd had in my very first hand-written recipe book from the early seventies when so many of the influences on Australian cuisine were only just beginning to make a ripple and so many of our recipes were still basically derived from English recipes. Although I suffered English school meals as a child, there really is a lot more to English - and earlier Australian - cuisine than chops and three veg! I am, therefore, posting this as both an English and an Australian recipe.

GRILLED DUCK BREASTS WITH RED WINE AND ORANGE SAUCE
From the November, 2008 Wine Enthusiast, this recipe is from French cookbook author Sophie Dudemaine's newest book, "Ducasse Made Sinple" which is based on Ducasse's encyclopedic "Grande Livre de Cuisine". Recommended wine pairing is a 2005 Reserve Cabernet Franc from Lieb Wine Cellars in Long Island (just threw that in for the serious wine enthusiasts out there). Yet to try but looks easy and tasty...DH clipped from the magazine and handed it over to me at breakfast, meaning, "Let's try this one!"... :-) What sets this apart is that there is pumpkin pie spice in the sauce and on the rub for the meat. Great to serve this with crispy potatoes or a creamy potato gratin and grean beans with shallots. Note: per a review that indicated the cooking time was incorrect, the "prep" time is listed as 15 but the "cook" time at an hour. I haven't changed anything, but wanted to indicate this in the recipe description to avoid confusion to others in the future. So the preparation of the sauce and the duck breasts can take approximately an hour in total.

Steps:
- To prepare the red wine and orange sauce.
- Combine the orange juice and honey in a large skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens to the consistency of a syrup, about 15 minutes.
- Add the vinegar, stir to combine, and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the wine, raise the heat to high and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture reduces by half (8 to 10 minutes). Add the chicken stock and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture reduces to a syrupy consistency, and there is about 1-1/2 cups of liquid remaining (10 to 15 minutes).
- Remove the pan from the heat, add the pumpkin pie spice, season with salt and pepper to taste and stir to incorporate. Add the butter and gently swirl with a wooden spoon until incorporated and the sauce takes on a satiny gloss. Keep the sauce war, over very low heat.
- To prepare the duck breasts:.
- Using a sharp knife, carefully remove about one-third of the fatty skin from the surface of each breast. With the tip of the knife, score the fat with a crosshatch design, being careful not to cut through to the meat. Spread the oil evenly over the duck breasts, then sprinkle them generously with salt and pepper. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of the spice mixture over each breast, a teaspoon on the fatty side and a teaspoon on the other side, and press the spices into the surfaces.
- Heat a large skillet on medium heat. Place the duck breasts, skin side down, in the skillet, lower the heat just a notch to medium-low and cook for 7-8 minutes, until the skin is crisply browned. Spoon out the excess fat from the pan as it is rendered. Turn the breasts and cook 3-4 minutes, until the meat on the opposite side is lightly browned. Transfer the breasts to a cutting board and set aside to rest for 5 minutes; they will continue to cook while resting.
- Using a sharp carving knife, cut the duck breasts in half crosswise, then cut each half into 1/4 inch slices. Divide among six warmed serving plates, arranging the slices fat side up. Spoon the sauce over the duck and serve.
Tips:
- Choose firm, ripe oranges with smooth, unblemished skin for the best results.
- Use a sharp knife to score the oranges deeply, as this will help the red wine sauce penetrate the fruit.
- If you don't have a zester, you can use a vegetable peeler to remove the zest from the oranges.
- Be sure to simmer the red wine sauce for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.
- Serve the oranges in red wine sauce warm or at room temperature.
Conclusion:
Oranges in red wine sauce is a classic French dessert that is both elegant and delicious. The oranges are infused with the rich flavor of the red wine sauce, and the combination of sweet and tart is simply irresistible. This dessert is perfect for any special occasion, and it is sure to impress your guests.
