  • Prep time: 20 mins

  • Cooking time: 5-10 mins

  • Serves: 6-8

Ingredients

You can use whatver fruit you fancy for this - pineapple, pear, dates, apple, banana - but think of fruit that will caramelise.

For the kebabs:

  • Good selection of fruit, cubed as necessary
  • Sesame seeds
  • Muscovado sugar or honey
  • Kebab sticks

For the sauce:

  • 200g good plain chocolate (70% cocoa solids)
  • Juice of 1 orange
  • 2tbsp dark rum
  • 285ml double cream
  • 100g caster sugar

Method

  1. Thread the kebabs up and sprinkle with the sesame seeds and the sugar (or honey). Cook on the fire or grill for about 3 mins until the sugar has caramelised and the fruit is scorched.
  2. In a bain-marie (a bowl lodged above a pan of boiling water) melt the chocolate. Then whisk in the cream and add the rum and orange juice. Watch the sauce doesn't crack or separate. Pour over the kebabs - bliss!
