By Maranda Engelbrecht
2
Easy

Ingredients

  • 2 fresh oranges, peeled
  • 1 cup verjuice
  • Half a cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons capers

Method

In a pot, slowly boil verjuice, sugar and saffron to a thick syrup. Add the capers and remove from heat, cool down.
Plate the oranges, and pour the juice over. Garnish with a fresh caper flower or nasturtium bud.
Hints & tips: The oranges can be replaced with pears or peaches. Serve crème fraiche or yoghurt on the side.
