Prefer breaking your Ramzan fast with dates?
Why settle for the ordinary variety, when you can jazz the dates up with chopped walnuts and melted chocolate and make a tasty sweetmeat.
Chef Sabyasachi Gorai's Chocolate Dates can be prepared in advance and enjoyed daily when you break your fast.
And even if you are not fasting, you would love these date treats.
Chef Saby often experiments with chocolate in unusual ways like his Walnut Avocado Chocolate Mousse, Homemade Chocolate Nougat and Easy Beetroot And Chocolate Cake.
