Made these without the orange juice, they had nice flavour to it, not too over-powering with the honey.

A lovely recipe even managing to get a non veg eating friend to eat them! Children love too as they're sweet. Don't think you can go wrong here.

It goes well with a lot of meat dishes. I made this for quite a few dinnerparties and everyone loved it
