Ingredients
- 500 ml fresh heavy cream
- 150 g sugar
- zest of 1 orange
- 60 ml orange juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Heat a saucepan over medium heat, add the cream and orange zest, then whisk in the sugar until dissolved.
- Simmer for about 8-10 minutes, whisking occasionally, until the cream has reduced and thicken slightly.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat. Place a strainer over a bowl and pour the mixture through the strainer, to remove the orange zest. Stir in the lemon and orange juice, and let it cool completely. The mixture will thicken as it sets.
- Divide the orange posset into serving glasses and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
- Right before serving, top the orange posset with fresh orange zest and optionally with mint leaves, berries, or cookies.
