In France, we say less is more, and this dish shows how delicious something simple can be. With just oranges and gelato, this dessert is easy enough for a weeknight dinner and impressive enough for entertaining. The recipe here is a simplified version of one by chef Gino D'Acampo.
Oranges
Vanilla gelato
Optional: fresh rosemary or basil
Slice oranges and cut off the rinds.
Serve with a small scoop of vanilla gelato — about 1/4 cup.
Optional: garnish with a few sprigs of fresh rosemary or basil to add color, nutrients, and a surprising laver of flavor.
To infuse the orange with the essence of rosemary beforehand, cover the orange slices and rosemary with plastic wrap and place them in the fridge for several hours or overnight.
