I tried my hand at my mother's recipe a few months back and am happy to report that it tasted just like I remembered it. And it is oh-so-easy to make!
Here's the recipe (with my mother's permission and consent) for those of you who like nothing more than the sweet sour tang of an orange!
Ingredients:
1 litre milk
Sugar, as per your taste
4 oranges, preferably the ones with the slightly lose peel
Put the milk to boil and thicken on low heat
Once the milk is nice and creamy, add sugar to taste
Take the milk off the heat and let cool
In the meantime, cut a small hole on the top of the orange and gently yet firmly, scoop out all the pulp using a knife and spoon. Do not discard the part you've cut out, it'll serve as a 'cover'.
Make sure that the orange peel doesn't tear much
Once you've separated the peel from the pulp, put the empty orange shells in the freezer
Add sugar and juice the pulp using a blender. While adding sugar, remember that you have already added sugar to the milk as well.
Once the milk is cooled, add the juice to the milk
Take out the empty shells from the freezer and pour the milk and juice mixture into each shell. Cover each shell with the top which was kept aside earlier.
Arrange the oranges on a plate and freeze for 4-5 hours.
You can either serve each orange as a whole (my favourite!)
Or, you can cut each orange into slices and serve
Add in some berries and you're ready!
Infact, if you think this is too much work, just scoop out the pulp, juice it with sugar, add it to milk and refrigerate. Have it like you would kheer or any cold liquidy dessert! It tastes great too! ;-)
