Hey chocolate lovers, this one’s for you!🍫👩‍🍳

Flavoured with malted milk powder and topped with a generous helping of Maltesers, this double chocolate mousse is light, fluffy and extremely chocolatey…😋

👩‍🍳Ingredients:

150g dark chocolate
100g milk chocolate
40g unsalted butter, cubed
2 tbsp malted milk powder (eg. Horlicks)
5 medium eggs, separated, at room temperature
60g caster sugar
150ml whipping cream
cocoa powder, to dust
60g Maltesers, roughly chopped

📝Method:

1. Roughly chop the dark and milk chocolate into pieces, then place in a large heatproof bowl with the butter and malted milk powder. Set over a saucepan of gently simmering water (make sure the bowl does not touch the water), stirring occasionally, until melted and glossy. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool for 10-15 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, place the egg yolks and 30g of the sugar in a separate large bowl, or the bowl of a stand mixer (fitted with the whisk attachment). Use an electric hand mixer or the stand mixer to whisk until pale and thick (about 5-10 minutes). Fold into the chocolate mixture, until combined.
3. Clean and dry the bowl and whisk, then whisk the egg whites with the remaining 30g of sugar and a pinch of salt until you have soft peaks. Fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture a third at a time, until just combined (take care not to knock out too much air) – a large metal spoon or flat spatula works best. Using the same bowl and whisk (no need to clean it this time), whip the cream to almost soft peaks. Gently fold into the chocolate mixture, until combined. Transfer to a large serving bowl, or 6 individual serving bowls or glasses. Chill in the fridge for 3-4 hours, until set, or overnight (see ‘Get ahead’).
4.To serve, dust the mousse(s) with cocoa and scatter over the chopped Maltesers. If serving from a large bowl, present it at the table and scoop portions into smaller bowls.

These chimichurri hot dogs are what we like to call a crowd pleaser!🌭😍

Made with Taste the Difference Sicilian-inspired sausages, topped with a herby chimichurri and served in a soft bun…what’s not to love?

👩‍🍳Ingredients:

🌭For the hot dogs:
4 Taste the Difference Sicilian-inspired pork sausages
4 hot dog rolls, split
6 tbsp mayonnaise

🌶For the chimichurri (make up to 2 days ahead)
1 x 30g pack flat-leaf parsley, leaves finely chopped
½ tsp dried oregano
½ echalion shallot, finely diced
1 garlic clove, crushed
½ tsp chilli flakes, or to taste
4 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp red wine vinegar

🥬For the slaw
100ml cider vinegar
1 tbsp sugar
½ tbsp fine salt
1 red onion, thinly sliced
1 small red pepper, deseeded and thinly sliced
½ white cabbage, cored and shredded
½ green chilli, thinly sliced

📝Method:

1. Start by pickling the onion for the slaw: whisk the vinegar, 100ml hot water, the sugar and salt in a bowl until dissolved. Add the sliced onion and set aside for at least 30 minutes. Meanwhile, combine all the ingredients for the chimichurri in a bowl and season with a pinch of salt. Set aside in the fridge until ready to serve.
2. Heat the barbecue for direct and indirect cooking (the coals heaped to one side). Grill the sausages over a medium heat (between the direct and indirect heat areas) for about 10-15 minutes until cooked through and nicely charred. Warm the hot dog rolls on the barbecue too.
3. Drain the pickled onions (reserving 1 tablespoon of the liquid) and put most of them in a bowl with the red pepper, cabbage, chilli and 2 tablespoons of the mayonnaise. Add the reserved pickling liquid and mix well until everything is coated. Spread the remaining mayonnaise inside the rolls, then fill with the sausages, chimichurri and remaining pickled onions. Serve the slaw alongside.

The drink of the summer has just been turned into the ultimate dessert, and we’re all here for it!🍊🙌

Topped with spritz flavoured jelly, this Aperol cheesecake has all the flavours of the classic Italian cocktail, paired with a creamy filling and crumbly biscuit base!

*Drinkaware for the facts.

👩‍🍳Ingredients:

🍪For the base:
125g digestive biscuits
60g butter, melted
10g popping candy

🍰For the filing
500g full fat cream cheese
100g mascarpone
100g icing sugar
finely grated zest of 1½ oranges
300ml double cream

🍊For the jelly
4½ sheets leaf gelatine
250ml Prosecco or other sparkling wine
1½ tbsp caster sugar
75ml Aperol
120ml orange juice (about 2 medium oranges), strained

📝Method:

1. Blitz the digestives in a food processor until fine. Tip into a bowl and add the melted butter. Combine then stir in the popping candy. Tip the mixture into the tin and press down with the back of a spoon until you have an even layer. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
2. Beat the cream cheese, mascarpone and icing sugar together. Add the orange zest and cream and mix until thick. Add to the base and refrigerate.
3. Cover the gelatine leaves with cold water in a bowl. Set aside. Pour about 50ml of the prosecco into a small pan and place over a low heat. Add the sugar, stir to dissolve then simmer until slightly reduced and syrupy. Remove from the heat; squeeze the excess water from the gelatine leaves then add them to the pan, stirring until melted. Add the Aperol and orange juice, pour into a measuring jug and set aside in the fridge for about 45 minutes until the jelly is just at setting point (it will thicken, but still be liquid). Give it good whisk to break up any lumps, then gently stir in the remaining prosecco. This should capture some bubbles in the jelly. Pour over the cheesecake and leave to set for at least 4 hours.

We’re gearing up for fakeaway Friday, and on the menu this week we’ve got these super simple chipotle crunchwraps!🌶🌮

Filled with spicy beef, gooey cheese and fresh lettuce, they’re the perfect way to kick off the weekend with something tasty…😍

👩‍🍳Ingredients:
1 tbsp oil
250g 5% fat beef mince
1½-2 tbsp chipotle paste
3 tortilla wraps
75g red Leicester cheese, grated
½ romaine lettuce, finely sliced

📝Method:
1. Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the beef mince. Once browned all over and starting to crisp, stir through the chipotle paste, according to how spicy you’d like it.
2. Lay two of the tortilla wraps out on a board and cut the remaining wrap into quarters. Divide the spicy beef between the two whole tortillas, keeping it in the middle of the wraps, then top each with half of the cheese. Scatter over the sliced lettuce. Place one of the quarter tortillas over the filling of each wrap and press down, then fold the base wrap up and over the filling, pleating around the edge as you go to create a sort of cushion. Press down to keep in shape.
3. Heat a frying pan over a medium heat, then fry one of the wraps, pleated-side down, until toasted and golden brown. Turn over and toast the underside for a further 2 minutes. Remove to a board and repeat with the other wrap. Cut in half to eat.

You’ll want to get the BBQ fired up ASAP for these next-level hot dogs!🌭😋

With spicy beef sausages, fresh veggies and crunchy ciabatta bread all charred on the barbie…that’s what we’d call a weekend winner.🙌

👩‍🍳Ingredients:

2 bunches spring onions, washed
3 mixed peppers, deseeded and cut into wedges
2 tbsp olive oil
4 ciabatta rolls
1 x 280g pack merguez sausages (we used Aunty Noray’s)
4 tbsp light mayonnaise
3 tbsp Greek-style yogurt
zest and juice of 1⁄2 lemon
1 tsp garlic granules, or 2 cloves, crushed
a handful of rocket, to serve

📝Instructions:

1. Preheat a barbecue. Toss the spring onions and peppers with oil to coat.
2. Cut the ciabatta rolls in half horizontally and slice the merguez in half lengthways.
3. Combine the mayonnaise, yogurt, lemon zest and juice, garlic and seasoning in a bowl for the sauce; set aside.
4. When the barbecue is hot, start by cooking the peppers. Grill skin-side until charred, then flip and grill for 2-3 minutes. Remove to a bowl, cover and leave to soften and for the skins to loosen. When cool enough to handle, slip off the most charred bits of skin.
5. Barbecue the spring onions for about 2 minutes each side until slightly charred and wilting, and toast the cut sides of the ciabatta rolls. Remove to a platter or board.
6. Finally, barbecue the merguez sausages for a couple of minutes each side. Add to the platter along with the charred peppers and serve with the garlicky sauce and a handful of rocket, for everyone to assemble themselves.
