Prepare the oranges
You wash the oranges thoroughly with water, using salt to scrub the orange peel well. Then grate the outer part of the orange to get a little grated orange peel (about 1 tablespoon).
Next, you can peel or cut off the orange peel. Separate the orange segments and cut them into small pieces to place in a bowl.

Making Orange Sauce
You place a pot on the stove, add 80g of sugar, half of the orange segments you just cut, set the heat to low, and wait for the pot to heat up. When you see that the sugar has dissolved more than half, add the grated orange peel and mix well, continuing to wait until the orange segments break down.
When the mixture starts to boil, add the remaining orange segments. Stir vigorously for about 5 minutes, then add 30g of orange jam and mix well until the orange jam is combined.
Next, mix 2 teaspoons of cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water and add it to the orange sauce pot. Stir the mixture in the pot until you see that the orange sauce has thickened, and the orange segments are flattened, soft, and sticking together, which means the sauce is ready.

How to choose fresh, juicy oranges
- Fresh oranges are those that still have the stem, and when you touch the stem, it feels firm; if you break it by hand, it does not fall off. The leaves are still attached to the orange, and they can be either fresh or wilted.
- The skin of fresh oranges releases oil when lightly squeezed or when pressed with a fingernail. This type is freshly picked from the garden, so it is still fresh and safe.
- Delicious and sweet oranges are those with thin skins and feel heavy in hand. Ripe oranges will have orange-yellow spots on the skin and an uneven color; if the orange has a uniform yellow color, it may be treated with chemicals or artificially ripened.
- Avoid choosing oranges that feel soft when squeezed and have large bruises on the skin’s surface. These may be oranges that have been picked for a long time and are likely to spoil or rot.
