Instructions

Prepare the oranges:

  • Prepare oranges: Top and tail the oranges and peel them with a knife, removing all the white pith. Using a sharp knife cut in between the orange segments to separate them from the orange skins. Do this over a bowl and make sure to collect all the running juices.
  • Orange juice: When finished, press again all the skin rests to collect as much juice as possible. You will need about 150 ml/ 10 tablespoons in the end.
  • Blend: Weigh about 200 g/ 7 oz of the orange segments and puree them, adding 1 tablespoon of sugar. Place in the fridge, covered, until ready to serve.

Syrup:

  • Make the syrup: Pour the 10 tablespoons of collected orange juice into a small pan. Add 1 tablespoon sugar and the lemon juice and bring to a boil, often stirring to dissolve the sugar. When it starts to boil, immediately remove it from the heat and let it cool. You should have a thin syrup.

Dairy:

  • Mix the mascarpone, cream cheese, yogurt, and 60 g/ ⅓ cup sugar. Whisk the heavy cream until stiff and fold carefully into the mascarpone mixture.

Assemble:

  • Spread about half of the mascarpone-yogurt mixture in a casserole dish (about 30 x 20 cm/ 12 x 7 inches).
  • Arrange the ladyfingers on top and carefully pour some of the syrup on them (using a tablespoon) until they are soaked. You might not need to add all the syrup. Pour the remaining syrup into the bowl containing the pureed oranges.
  • Arrange the orange segments on top of the ladyfingers and cover everything with the rest of the mascarpone mixture.
  • Refrigerate: Cover the dish with plastic foil and refrigerate overnight.
  • Top: Just before serving, spread the pureed oranges on top of the tiramisu.
