Ingredients

  • 4 blood oranges
  • 5 clementines
  • 75g golden caster sugar
  • 2 star anise
  • 3 cardamom pods, bruised
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 25g pistachios, roughly chopped

Step by step

Get ahead

Assemble several hours in advance; cover and chill. Sprinkle with the pistachios just before serving.

  1. Pare the zest from one of the oranges and put in a small pan with the juice of one clementine, the sugar, spices and 100ml water. Stir over a low heat until the sugar has dissolved; increase the heat and boil rapidly for 5 minutes or until syrupy. Set aside to cool slightly before discarding the spices and orange zest.

  2. With a serrated knife, remove the peel and pith from the clementines and oranges. Slice into thin rounds, adding any juices to the syrup. Serve on a platter, drizzled with the warm syrup and scattered with the pistachios.
