RECIPE
Ingredients:
1. Fresh whole juicy strawberries
Round Bamboo Basket
2. Fresh peeled Orange
Bamboo Ring Basket
3. Dark Chocolate bar about 100 gms – (We have used Morde Dark Compound)
4. Bamboo skewer sticks
Time: 25 mins
15 mins to prep, 10 mins to set
Prep:
Wash and pat dry strawberries. Peel and remove the white fibre from the oranges. Place it in bamboo ring basket. Remove the seeds gently and pat dry with kitchen towel or tissue.
Break the chocolate into small pieces and melt in the microwave or on a double boiler. Keep mixing the chocolate lightly in between to make sure it doesn’t get too hot and has a smooth silky texture.
Stick a skewer into each strawberry and dip half into the melted chocolate. Remove immediately and keep standing in a glass. Similarly stick it along the length of the oranges and dip halfway into the chocolate. Once all are done, put it in the fridge for 10 mins to set and they are ready to serve.
