We served these peels as a treat on the Blood Orange Sorbet at a Thermomix Cooking Class and the guests loved it!
Thanks to recipe community user "Gerrlee" for the original recipe that we have made some small changes too.

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

You're a lifesaver - been doing this without Thermi for years for a Honey & Co Fig Walnut Orange loaf that I absolutely love, and I only make it once or twice a year as candying the orange peel was such a schlepp and then occasionally would loose the whole lot as it would set like a rock - not any more!! This turned out perfectly, thanks so much!! Am going to keep the syrup for a Xmas cocktail or three
I halved this recipe, as I was only making it to use as a garnish on top of a lemon tart. I made it with orange peels. It was very easy. I think if I was to make it again, I would blanch them first, to take away a little of the bitterness. I have saved the leftover orange-flavoured sugar syrup to use as a topper for pancakes (instead of maple syrup), as I hate wasting anything. Overall, highly recommend.
Fantastic easy recipe. I did lemon and it was very easy.

Heard about this candied peel at a recent Thermomix Cooking Class my friend went to, she said it was really good. Will be making it tomorrow.
