Recipe: Clementine Petals

1 Peel the clementines into segments, then arrange them on a plate, sprinkle with sugar and drizzle with 4 cl of Grand Marnier, then cover with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator.

2 In a bowl, add your egg yolks, pour in your sugar then whiten the mixture with a whisk.

3 On the stove place a saucepan with water so that the bowl sits halfway in it (double boiler).
