Barbecued Fruit with Chilli Chocolate Sauce
Need a pudding to go with your barbecue? Try cooking fruit over hot coals till it's sweet and smoky. Then serve it with an indulgent, chilli-spiked chocolate sauce.
Ingredients
- 100g dark chocolate
- 200ml double cream
- 50g butter, chopped
- A pinch of dried chilli flakes
- 1 pineapple
- 1 mango
- 1 pear
- 1 banana
- 1 lime
Prep: 15 mins | Cook: 10 mins
Method
1. Light your barbecue and let the flames die down, till the coals are white hot and ashy.
2. Meanwhile, make the chocolate sauce. Break the dark chocolate into a heatproof bowl and add a good pinch of dried chilli flakes and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
3. Pour the double cream into a small pan and add the butter. Warm the cream and butter till gently simmering, then pour the cream over the chocolate. Stir together till they come together to make a thick sauce. Set aside.
4. Slice the skin from the pineapple and remove any woody eyes with the tip of a small, sharp knife. Slice the pineapple into thick chunks. Peel the mango and slice the cheeks away from the stone. Halve the pear.
5. When the coals on the barbecue are white hot, add the sliced pineapple, mango and pear to the grill set above them. Add the banana with the peel still on. Cook the fruit for 3-4 mins on each side, till caramelised and slightly charred in places.
6. Transfer the fruit to a serving plate. Serve the barbecued fruit with wedges of lime for squeezing and the chilli chocolate sauce for dipping.
