To begin with, oranges need to be washed well, dry them with paper towels and cut into circles about half a centimeter thick. In a small saucepan, boil the waters and immerse the circles in boiling water for a few minutes. This is necessary in order for all the bitterness to come out of the orange. Then take the orange circles out of the water, spread on a paper towel, wait for them to dry a little. You can help the process by wetting moisture with wipes. Pour a layer of sugar into the pan on the bottom, lay a layer of oranges on it, then sprinkle again with sugar. Continue laying out the oranges in layers, interspersed with sugar. When the oranges are laid out, top them with leftover sugar. We fill oranges with half a liter of water - it can be a little less or more. The main thing here is that the oranges are completely covered with liquid, but extra moisture is also not needed. Put a saucepan with a future treat on a medium heat, bring to a boil. After that, reduce the heat to minimal and keep the oranges in boiling syrup for about
1. 5 hours. The peel of oranges should become transparent and soft. Remove the oranges from the syrup, spread them on a layer of paper. Let the orange mugs cool. At this time, preheat the oven to 100 degrees. Put the orange circles there to dry for 20 minutes. They need to be put on bakery paper. Look at oranges every couple of minutes - they can easily burn. Caramelized oranges are ready! Wait for them to cool down and you can serve a treat to the table. Such oranges are well stored in a regular glass jar. Sweet tea party!
