• Cut a round of parchment paper to fit in a large, shallow saucepan. Bring sugar and water to a boil, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Carefully add orange slices, and place parchment directly on surface. Reduce heat, and simmer gently until oranges have softened and liquid is syrupy, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat, and let oranges cool in syrup. Halve or quarter some of the orange slices if desired.
