Инструкции
- Prepare orange by cutting off strips of the rind, being careful not to include any of the white pulp just beneath the orange part of the rind.
- Cut sufficient rind and cut into small slivers to make 2 Tbsp.. Squeeze the orange and strain; measure out 1/2 c. and set aside.
- In small pan, combine 1 c. water and 1/2 c. sugar. Bring to a boil over high heat and then stir in orange rind which has been slivered. Lower heat and keep mix at barely simmering state; simmer uncovered till mix is like syrup, about 10 min or possibly so. Stir in the ginger and set aside to cold to lukewarm. In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, 1/2 c. orange juice, whipping cream, margarine, vanilla and the 3 egg yolks. Beat this till very well combined. Stir in the cooled syrup mix and beat well. Place 2 egg whites in bowl and beat till soft peaks form. Stir this into potato mix; don't beat but blend it very well. Pour this mix into the unbaked pie shell. Make sure you smooth the top of the pie. Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven 45-50 min or possibly till knife inserted 1/3 distance from edge comes out clean. The center will be just the slightest bit soft. About 20 min before pie is done, prepare the topping.
- TOPPING: Place the 4 remaining egg whites in a large bowl along with the cream of tartar. Beat at low speed till frothy. Increase the speed and VERY gradually add in the remaining 1/2 c. sugar. Continue beating till whites are very glossy and stiff. This will take about 12-15 min.
- When pie is done, remove from oven and spoon on the egg whites. Do not smooth the top; make soft peaks with the back of a spoon. Continue baking for 10-15 min longer at the same 350-degree temperature till meringue is very light brown. Remove to a wire rack to cold.
- This topping will "weep" if kept overnight so plan to serve the same day it is prepared.
- Serving Ideas : Serve this at a winter holiday feast.
