Dish Details:kid


INGREDIENTS:

hazelnuts200g caster sugar
2 tbsp water
50g butter
100g whole hazelnuts
200g dark chocolate (55–60 per cent cocoa solids)


PREPARATION:
1. Line a baking sheet with a silicone cooking liner or baking parchment. Melt the sugar with the water in a heavy-based saucepan over a very gentle heat. Once all the sugar grains have dissolved, stir in the melted butter. Increase the heat and boil to a mid-golden colour. Take off the heat.

2. Drop in a cluster of three nuts, scoop out at once with a metal spoon and place on the lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining nuts to make about 24 clusters. Cool until set and firm.

3. Melt the chocolate (click here to find out how). Dunk each nut cluster into the chocolate to coat and place on baking parchment to set. Store in an airtight tin for up to three days.
