Method

Step 1

Finely zest the oranges, then add the zest to a jug with boiling water.

Step 2

Stir in the jelly sachet until fully dissolved.

Step 3

Cut the pith from the orange, then segment the flesh leaving the pith behind. Roughly chop and add to the jug.

Step 4

Squeeze the core of the orange to get any juice out, then add that to the jug.

Step 5

Allow to cool, then put into a large jar, mix, then seal and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours. Store in the fridge - keeps for 5 days.

Recipe tips

Chop the marmalade up with a spoon before eating to make spreading easier.
For a vegetarian or vegan version, use an unflavoured, seaweed-based gelling agent and use sugar-free squash and sweetener.
