Writer's picture: OrchardWorldOrchardWorld

OrchardWorld is very excited to present to you, our ‘OrchardWorld Mother’s Day Afternoon Tea. Think of the brownie points you will earn from putting the effort into creating this yummy delight. Recipe below...


Serves 8  | Cooking Time 2hrs 30mins


Blood Orange Marmalade INGREDIENTS

4 x OrchardWorld Blood Oranges

2 x OrchardWorld Large Lemons

940ml of water

600g sugar

Knob of butter

Sterilised jars


METHOD

  1. Measure 3 cups of water into a saucepan and put onto a medium heat.

  2. Squeeze the juice of the lemon and oranges and add to the water. Discard the pips.

  3. Cut the orange peel to your desired thickness and pop into the water.

  4. Turn the heat down and add the sugar, continue to stir until the sugar has dissolved.

  5. Once fully dissolved, increase back to a medium heat.

  6. Bring to a boil for 15 minutes - giving it an occasional stir

  7. Take off the stove and spoon a little onto a plate and place into the fridge for a few minutes.

  8. Once taken out you should be able to move/touch the mixture and it should be of marmalade consistency, if not then bring it back to the boil on the stove. Repeat the same process until the desired effect is achieved.

  9. Stir in a knob of butter and leave for 20 minutes.

  10. Using a funnel, pour the marmalade into the sterilised* jars they are going to be stored in and seal. Once cooled this can be stored in a cool, dry and dark place. *(To sterilise glass jars, simply wash in hot soapy water, rinse and stand upside down on a baking tray in the oven at 160-180°c for 15 minutes)



Scones INGREDIENTS

225 grams Self Raising Flour

1 tsp Baking Powder

add a pinch of salt

25 grams of Caster Sugar

50 grams unsalted butter

150 millilitres Milk

1 Egg


METHOD

  1. Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7.

  2. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Stir in the sugar, add the butter and rub quickly into the flour, creating a fine breadcrumb consistency.

  3. Add the milk, a little at a time, working to a smooth dough.

  4. This is now best left to rest for 5-15 minutes before rolling.

  5. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured work surface until 2cm/¾in thick. Using a 5cm/2in pastry cutter, cut the dough, using one sharp tap and not twisting the dough as you cut. Twisting the scone mix will result in an uneven rising.

  6. Once cut, the scones can be either brushed with the beaten egg for a shiny glaze or dusted with the flour for a matt finish.

  7. Place the scones on a greased baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly, and serve while still warm. OrchardWorld Blush/Blood Oranges can be purchased from Ocado.
