Hazırlanışı

1. Place the whole, unpeeled oranges into a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 1 1/2 hours. Remove the oranges from the water and allow to cool. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and lightly grease and flour a 9-inch spring-form pan. Once cooled, cut the oranges into halves, discarding any seeds. Place 7 orange halves into a food processor and pulse until pureed with small pieces still visible. Measure out 3 cups of the orange puree and set aside. In a small bowl, mix together the almond meal, flour, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, beat the eggs with one cup of the sugar until light and fluffy. Add the orange puree and stir into the egg mixture, then stir in the flour mixture just until combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 50 to 55 minutes, or until cooked through. While the cake is baking, prepare the topping by chopping the remaining orange halves into small pieces. Add the remaining cup of sugar along with 3/4 cup of water to a saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir well to dissolve the sugar, then add the chopped oranges. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and cook for about 20 minutes or until thickened. Use a wand mixer to blend half the orange mixture, then set aside to cool. Once the cake has cooled, turn it onto a cake platter and spoon the topping mixture over the cake, leaving a 1 inch border of cake exposed. Cut into wedges and serve.
