on a high microwave setting.

minutes. Drain the water refresh oranges with cold water then set aside to
cool.
3. Chop the oranges into chunks. Then place the chunks into a food
processor and blitz well.
4. In a mixing bowl whisk the eggs and sugar until thick and pale. Add the
almond meal, processed orange, bi-carb soda and poppy seeds. Fold
mixture until well combined.
5. Pour mixture into a greased Dynamic Crisp Cake Tin*. Place the plate in
the microwave and set the microwave to Dynamic Crisp function. Cook for

pyrex measuring jug, then stir. Heat for 1 minute intervals, stirring in
between until sugar is dissolved.

syrup. Try with double cream.
