Combine OJ, honey, sugar, cinnamon, clove, fresh ginger and vanilla in saucepot and simmer on medium/low for five minutes. Add 1/2 cup white wine (can omit and its still yum, but it adds lots of flavor), and simmer 2 to 3 more minutes allowing alcohol to evaporate.
Pour mixture over segmented fresh oranges, and allow ingredients to infuse their flavors for about 30 minutes.
FOR THE BRIE:
Cut Brie into whatever size portions you like... either bite size or can be pie-shaped slivers.
Grab a little handful of Kataifi (which is so easy to work with and fun -- its simply super thin strands of whole wheat similar to the finest pasta, but much thinner than even angel hair). Lay small portion of Kataifi on counter, place piece of Brie on it and roll up to cover all sides.
Heat one Tbsp of clarified butter in a non-stick pan on medium heat. Take wrapped Brie and brown for 30 seconds on each side.
Place Arugula on plate, drizzle with oranges and juice, and top with warm, browned Brie.
This is simply wonderful and really quite simple. Just look for Kataifi in a gourmet food market.
