Ingredients

  • Mixed nuts (almonds, cashews, walnuts) 40 g
  • Orange 1 medium (130g)

Method

  1. Prepare your workspace. Wash your hands thoroughly before handling food. Gather a small plate or bowl for the nuts and a knife and cutting board for the orange.
    Tip: Keeping your workspace clean helps maintain food safety.
  2. Measure the mixed nuts. Using a kitchen scale, measure out 40 grams of mixed nuts including almonds, cashews, and walnuts. Place them on your plate or in a small bowl.
    Tip: If you don’t have a scale, roughly use about 3 tablespoons of mixed nuts.
  3. Wash the orange. Rinse the orange under cool running water to remove any dirt or residues on the peel. Dry it with a clean towel.
    Tip: Washing the orange ensures the peel is clean if you plan to zest or handle the peel.
  4. Peel the orange. Use your fingers or a small knife to carefully peel away the orange skin. Try to remove all the white pith as it can be bitter.
    Tip: Peeling over a bowl can catch any juice that drips.
  5. Segment the orange. Gently separate the orange into individual segments by pulling them apart along the natural lines. Remove any seeds you find.
    Tip: Segmenting the orange makes it easier and more pleasant to eat.
  6. Serve and enjoy. Place the orange segments on the plate with the mixed nuts. Enjoy this fresh, healthy snack immediately to benefit from the best flavor and texture.
    Tip: This snack is perfect for a quick energy boost or a light, nutritious treat.

Pro tips

  • If you prefer, lightly toast the mixed nuts in a dry pan over medium heat for 3-5 minutes to enhance their flavor.
  • You can add a sprinkle of cinnamon or a drizzle of honey over the orange segments for extra taste.
