  1. Let’s start with cooking the sauce. Juice the oranges and half of the lemon, chop the garlic. Take a deep pot and boil the juice, add garlic, one tablespoon of sugar and a few drops of Tabasco sauce. If the oranges are sour, you can add more sugar. On average, the sauce should be boiled for 12 minutes, while you should stir it until it becomes dense. Take the sauce away from fire and let it cool down a bit.
