Unfortunately, I didn't incorporate the gelatin properly the first time round, so had to do it again, which meant I didn't have time to make the top layer. Better luck next time, I guess.
6 Marie biscuits
1 tbsp butter
200gms beaten fresh cream
100gms beaten hung curds
2 tablespoons castor sugar
1 1/2 tsp geletin
1 1/2 tsp geletin
1 orange, with the juicy part taken out
few drops orange essence
orange food colouring (very, very little)
Crush the Marie biscuits into a fine powder (use a rolling pin), add the butter, and mix well. Spread at the bottom of the serving dish (line it with oil first), pat till it is smooth, and keep in the fridge for about 20 minutes to give it time to set.
Meanwhile, mix the cream and the hung curds well, with 2 tbsp sugar, orange essence and orange food colouring.
Dissolve geletin in 1 tbsp warm water, and mix it with the cream. Add a few pieces of peeled oranges (not too many, because we don't want it to release water- just enough for a bit of texture), pour it onto the base, and put it in the fridge to set for about an hour.
Serve garnished with the rest of the orange.
