This Tahini Rocky Road Recipe Is From 5 Ingredients Mediterranean Cookbook by Jamie Oliver.
Ingredients Needed:
- 300g dark chocolate (70%)
- 4 tablespoons tahini
- 300g luxury fruit and nut mix
- 200g shortbread biscuits
- 2 tablespoons fruit jam
How To Make Tahini Rocky Road:
- Melt the chocolate: Sit a heatproof bowl over a pan of lightly simmering water, break the chocolate into pieces, and add 3 tablespoons of tahini. Stir occasionally until fully melted and smooth.
- Chop the mix-ins: Roughly chop half of the fruit and nuts along with all the shortbread biscuits. Combine them with the remaining whole fruit and nuts.
- Fold in the mix-ins: Add most of the chopped fruit, nuts, and biscuits to the melted chocolate, leaving a small handful aside for decoration. Stir to coat everything evenly.
- Pour and swirl: Pour the mixture into a baking dish lined with greaseproof paper, ensuring it’s about 2.5cm thick. Sprinkle the reserved fruit, nuts, and biscuits on top. Add blobs of fruit jam and the remaining tablespoon of tahini, swirling them through with a spoon for a marbled effect.
- Chill and serve: Place the dish in the fridge for a few hours to set. Once firm, slice into pieces and serve.
Recipe Tips
- Melt the chocolate gently: Use a double boiler (or a bowl over simmering water) to melt the chocolate slowly, stirring occasionally to avoid burning.
- Chop ingredients evenly: Ensure the fruit, nuts, and biscuits are chopped to a similar size for even distribution in the rocky road.
- Reserve toppings for decoration: Save a small amount of the fruit, nuts, and biscuits to sprinkle on top for added texture and visual appeal.
- Swirl the tahini and jam: When adding the tahini and jam, gently swirl them through the mixture to create beautiful patterns without fully mixing.
- Allow enough chilling time: Let the rocky road chill in the fridge for a few hours to set properly before slicing it.
