Chocolate Dipped Strawberries
INGREDIENTS
1lb/450g fresh strawberries
7oz/200g dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids if possible)
METHOD
- Firstly wash the strawberries (leaving the stalks in place) in cold water. Drain in a colander and dry completely on kitchen paper.
- Line a baking sheet or tray with greaseproof or wax paper.
- Heat some water to boiling point in a saucepan. Remove from the heat.
- Break the chocolate into pieces and place in a large heatproof bowl. Place the bowl over the pan of hot water ensuring that it does not come into contact with the water. Stir regularly until the chocolate is completely melted & smooth.
- Hold a strawberry by its stalk and dip into the chocolate, rotating it slowly. Lift it out of the chocolate and allow the excess to drain back into the basin. Place onto the greaseproof paper.
- Repeat the process until all strawberries are coated.
- Allow the strawberries to set fully in the refrigerate for about an hour.
