1 Prebaked pie shell
1 c Orange juice
1 c Orange sections; cut in pcs
2 tb Orange rind; grate
1 c Sugar
5 tb Cornstarch
3 Eggs; separate
2 tb Lemon juice
2 tb Butter

Preheat oven to 350~. Combine orange juice, sections, rind, sugar and
cornstarch in a medium saucepan. Cook on low heat, stirring
occasionally, until clear. Beat the egg yolks in a small bowl and add
a little of the hot mixture, stirring quickly to prevent eggs from
cooking. Whisk warm egg mixture into hot mixture and cook, stirring
continuously, for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and blend in
lemon juice and butter. Set aside. In medium bowl, beat the egg
whites on high speed until stiff peaks form; then add 1-1/2 tb of
sugar and mix until blended in. Pour warm orange filling into warm
pie shell. Spoon sweetened egg whites on top of filling and bake at
350~ until meringue is lightly browned. Source: The Times-Picayune,
