Total Time: 35 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 2 oranges
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1/4 cup peeled and finely sliced shallot
• 115 g ground lamb or 115 g dark chicken meat
• 1/4 cup roasted peanuts
• 2 tablespoons palm sugar (i use light brown sugar)
• 1 tablespoon fish sauce (i use soya sauce or salt + water)
• 1 -2 fresh red chile, deseeded and sliced into thin slices crossways (can substitute these with green chillies)
• 2 sprigs coriander leaves

Recipe

• 1 peel and slice the oranges crossways into 5 slices each omitting the side slices and carefully remove all the pith and the seeds/ you can use 10 pineapple slices too sometimes as the oranges we get in india are not as compact as the western oranges.
• 2 arrange the slices on a platter in a single layer.
• 3 heat oil in a fry pan on medium heat and saute the onions until they brown.
• 4 add the meat and stir till it is brown.
• 5 reduce heat and add the peanuts, sugar and fish sauce.
• 6 stir till the sugar has melted.
• 7 put 1 tblsp or more of this meat mixture in the middle of each orange slice (divide the mix over the ten slices) place one slice of chilli (oh! galloping horses) and 1 leaf of the coriander leaf on each heap of meat and serve at room temperature.
