Winter is the perfect time for oranges, and homemade orange jelly is a tasty treat, especially for kids who love spreading it on bread. Here’s an easy way to make it at home using orange juice, sugar, and vinegar.

Ingredients:

• 4 large oranges

• 1 cup sugar

• 1 teaspoon vinegar

• 1/2 cup water

Method:

1. Prepare the oranges:

   • Peel the oranges and remove the seeds and the white pith thoroughly.

   • Blend the remaining orange flesh in a mixer until smooth, leaving no large pieces.
      

2. Cook the sugar syrup:

   • Heat a pan and add water and sugar.

   • Boil for about 5 minutes until the sugar dissolves and the syrup thickens slightly.
      

3. Mix orange puree:

   • Strain the orange puree into the sugar syrup.

   • Stir well and cook for a few minutes to blend the flavors.
      

4. Add vinegar:

   • Add 1 teaspoon vinegar to the mixture and cook for a few more minutes while stirring continuously.
      

5. Cool and store:

   • Once done, let the jelly cool.

   • Pour into a clean glass jar or airtight container.

   • Store in the fridge or at room temperature, ensuring the container is airtight to prevent spoilage.

Tips:

• Make sure to remove all seeds and white pith to avoid bitterness.
   

• Stir continuously when adding vinegar to prevent curdling.
   

• The jelly can last longer if stored in an airtight container.
