Directions

  1. 1

    Wash the untreated orange, rub dry and finely grate approx. 1 teaspoon of the peel. Peel this and 2 other oranges in such a way that the white skin is completely removed. Remove the fillets with a sharp knife between the parting skins. Squeeze the juice out of the parting skins. Squeeze the remaining 4 oranges. Boil up the orange juice with honey, add vanilla pulp and cinnamon stick and boil down at low heat for about 10 minutes

  2. 2

    Melt 50 g butter. Mix eggs, milk, flour, salt, orange peel, liquid butter and rose water with a whisk to a smooth dough, pour through a sieve and let rest for a while. Knock the seeds out of the pomegranate half using a wooden spoon. Spread a thin layer of clarified butter on a coated pan (approx. 15 cm Ø), heat it up. Bake 1/12 of the dough in it to a thin crêpe. Fold the crêpe into a triangle and keep covered warm. Do the same with the rest of the dough. In the meantime, repeatedly spread the pan with clarified butter

  3. 3

    Soak gelatine in cold water. Cut 40 g butter into flakes. Squeeze the gelatine and dissolve in the orange sauce. Stir in the butter flakes with a whisk. Season to taste with ouzo. Wash the thyme, shake dry and add to the sauce together with the orange fillets. Warm up briefly. Pluck the marzipan into pieces

    Arrange the crêpes on plates, add orange filets with sauce. Sprinkle with pomegranate seeds and marzipan pieces
