I'm always looking for new and exciting recipes to try, and this one definitely fits the bill. The combination of oranges and star anise is unexpected, but it works really well.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover oranges. I had some oranges that were starting to go bad, so I decided to make this. It turned out great!

I tried this recipe last night and it was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less sugar next time.

This was a really interesting and unique dish. I'd never had anything like it before, but I really enjoyed it. The oranges were sweet and tangy, and the star anise added a nice spice.
