<p>Chef Shajji shows you how to make some unique and artsy food out of the primary varieties of chocolate<br /><br /></p>.<p>Chocolate is a processed, typically sweetened food produced from the seed of the tropical theobroma cacao tree. Very few foods incite the kind of emotions chocolates incite in people. Passion for chocolates goes beyond and is different from love for “sweet” candies or desserts. After all few people crave caramel, whipped cream or bubble gum as much as chocolate. Chocolate is, well, different! For a true chocoholic, just thinking about chocolate evokes a pleasurable feeling. <br /><br />And now there is growing evidence that, in small quantities, several varieties of chocolates may actually be good for you. Dark chocolate, for instance, is rich in flavonols, a type of anti-oxidants. These compounds help in lowering the blood pressure and protect against heart diseases, amongst other things. Chocolate, with all its health benefits intact, can be used in preparing multiple dishes. <br /><br />Here are some unique recipes:<br /><br />Broccoli chocolate soup <br /><br />(A unique soup made with butter, tossed broccoli, finished with chocó cream and seasoned with tobascco sauce) <br /><br />Ingredients: 100g broccoli, 20g white chocolate, 3 – 4 cloves garlic cloves, 20g onions, 1 sprig of celery, 1 sprig of leeks, salt and black pepper as per taste, 2g of thyme, 15g of unsalted butter, 10g cocoa powder, 30g cooking cream, 100ml vegetable stock.<br /><br />Method: Saute onion and garlic in butter, with celery and leeks. Add sliced broccoli. Add the stock in sauted vegetables, bring it to boil and add the remaining ingredients. Then blend well with a hand blender. Finish the soup with chocolate cocoa cream. <br /><br />Grilled pear chocolate salad<br /><br />(A salad specially customised to cater to those who love raspberries and chocolates)<br />Ingredients: 1 pear, 30g frozen raspberries, 20g hazelnut paste, 20g iceberg lettuce, 25g processed cheese, 30ml olive oil, 30g dark chocolate, 10g refined flour, 10ml milk, 10g icing sugar, 10g cocoa powder, salt for seasoning, sage as per taste.<br /><br />Method: Slice pear into three layers, marinate it with sage and seasonings, and grill it. Stuff the pear with seasoned lettuce topped with hazelnut paste, raspberries and cheese. For chocolate crisp, mix refined flour, milk, sugar, and cocoa powder forming batter. Spread the prepared batter onto baking sheet and bake till crisp. For amazing taste, serve warm. <br /><br />Chocolate sponge prawns<br /><br />(Torched king prawns with chocolate sponge and coca nib’s jelly - a starter which is indulgent, and appetizing for every occasion)<br /><br />Ingredients: 1 king prawn, 3-4 garlic cloves, 2 lemons, a sprig of parsley, a little white wine, freshly ground salt and black pepper as per taste, 4 tbsp olive oil. For chocolate sponge, take 2 and half eggs, 75g sugar, 70g refined flour, 10g cocoa powder, 3g baking powder. For cocoa nib’s jelly, take 25g cocoa nibs, 50ml sugar syrup, 5g gelatin/agar-agar<br />Method: Place a small amount of oil in the pan and start to cook the prawns. When they begin to turn pink, add a glug of white wine. Peel and finely grate the garlic into the pan before the alcohol burns off (do not add the garlic before the wine or after the alcohol has burned off or it will burn too). Add the zest of both lemons and the juice of one lemon and leave to simmer until some of the liquid disappears. <br /><br />Add the parsley and salt and pepper. Remove from the pan and serve with salad or potatoes. For making chocolate sponge, whisk egg with sugar to peak stage, fold in flour sieved with baking powder, pour the batter on greased baking tray and bake at 180 degrees for 7 mins. For cocoa nib jelly, boil sugar water to form sugar syrup, add melted gelatin, mix cocoa nibs, and set into trays. Torch the prawns before final plating of the dish.<br /><br />CHOC-O-BLISS <br /><br />Chef Shajji shows you how to make some unique and artsy food out of the primary varieties of chocolate<br /><br />Chocolate is a processed, typically sweetened food produced from the seed of the tropical theobroma cacao tree.
