Sweet chocolate chilli sauce

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Sauces and Gravies
A simplified, dessert-style cousin of Mexican Mole sauces. The fat content of the chocolate helps to mellow the heat of the chilli, while the capsaicin highlights the fruitiness of the cocoa. An exciting accompaniment to roast meats or vanilla ice cream.

Instructions

1 ✓

Finely chop the chilli (hotter with seeds, milder without). Add to the water with honey and balsamic vinegar.

Tip: The acidity of the balsamic vinegar cuts through the richness of the chocolate.
2 ✓

Bring to a boil, then simmer for 5 minutes to let the chilli infuse its heat into the liquid.

Tip: This is the infusion step.
3 ✓

Reduce heat to minimum. Add broken chocolate, cinnamon, and salt. Stir constantly until you get a smooth, thick sauce.

Tip: Do not boil the chocolate as it may burn and become bitter.
4 ✓

Cool to lukewarm before serving. It will thicken in the fridge.

Tip: As it cools, the cocoa butter crystallises, creating a thicker texture.

Recipe FAQ

The chocolate seized, why?
You heated it too high, or water got into pure chocolate before melting. Here we cook with water, but the emulsion (mix of fat and water) is achieved by constant stirring and the help of honey.

  • 1 pc Chilli pepper (or to taste)
