Instructions
1
Using a sharp knife, slice the top and bottom off each orange, then cut away the peel and white pith following the curve of the fruit.
2
Slice the peeled oranges crosswise into rounds about 1cm thick, picking out any visible seeds.
3
Arrange the orange rounds slightly overlapping in two shallow bowls.
4
Dust the slices evenly with the ground cinnamon and sprinkle the sugar over the top.
5
Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes to let the flavours meld.
6
Scatter torn mint leaves over each bowl just before serving.
