Citrus Augustus



Orange and grapefruit with peppermint toffee.



Serves 4:

3 oranges
3 grapefruits

100 g sugar
30 ml water
1 Tbsp finely chopped peppermint
100 ml cream

Use a paring knife to remove all the peel, white pith, and membrane from outside the fruit. The flesh should be exposed.
For each section, cut between the fruit and membrane on each side. Lift out each segment and put them on small serving bowls. Set aside.
Bring the sugar and water to boil until it caramelizes.
Add cream and peppermint while stirring the mixture constantly.
Remove from heat.

Serve the orange and grapefruit with ice cream and peppermint toffee.
