My neurologist brother-in-law is a great cook. He specializes in fish and desserts. He treated us to Sharabi Narangi and I couldn't believe just how delicious this simple dessert can be!
Before dinner, all he did was peel oranges, slice them, sprinkle powdered cinnamon and chill them. Come dessert-time, he put a few slices out on a plate, drizzled them with Cointreau and served them with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream.
It was so good that I had to stop myself from licking the Cointreau off the plate!

I've made a version of this with strawberries, orange flower water and framboise liquer - and it is yummy!
Incidentally, your recipe is a twist on a traditional moroccan salad, with cinnamon and orange flower water instead of the orange liquer.
Hi Diane! A traditional Moroccan salad?! How intriguing! Where do you buy orange flower water?
I think this recipe is from one of Madhur Jaffrey's cookbooks but without the ice-cream. The ice cream was my brother-in-law's idea.
Sharabi anything is a fab dessert if you ask me :-) Orange flower water is available at Middle eastern stores.
Ashwini, you're a girl after my own heart!
Thanks for letting me know where to pick up orange flower water. My daughter will be thrilled. She wondered what the fuss was about. A few slices of orange with ice-cream. :-D
Sounds delicious. I'm gonna try this out.
i wanna try this manisha.
Pushpa and Lakshmi, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
