1 cup sugar
5 tablespoons cornstarch
1-1/2 cups orange juice
3 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
2 large navel oranges, peeled, sectioned and finely chopped
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice

1
In a small saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch. Stir in orange juice until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat; cook and stir 2 minutes longer.

In a small bowl, beat egg whites on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, 1 teaspoon at a time, beating on high until stiff glossy peaks form and sugar is dissolved. Spread evenly over hot filling, sealing edges to crust.

Bake at 350u00b0 for 15 minutes or until meringue is golden brown. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving. Refrigerate leftovers.
