  White Chocolate tart with Strawberies





Chocolate tart.... Yumyyyy!
This buttery , and crunchy crust, topped with a smooth and creamy white chocolate filling  balanced by the tartness of the strawberies is simply divine.

In this recipe I'm using a 6' tart pan. You may double the recipe for a bigger pan or instead of one big tart, you can make mini tarts as well.
  
I always used dark chocolate in my baked goods simply because my kids are a huge fan of dark chocolate.
However, i wanted to try something differant. So I decided to make this tart with white chocolate instead. White chocolate is much sweeter than dark chocolate so I recommend using sour-ish fruits to compliment  the sweetness . I had some strawberries in the fridge and decided to use those, but you can use any fruit of your choice It turned out perfect and the strawberries really compliment the white chocolate. A perfect feast for the eyes and mouth! Happy baking.

This is how I made it.

For crust:

: 180g digestive biscuits
: 70g salted butter (melted)

For filling

- 1 cup white chocolate (chopped)
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1tbs butter
- 1 cup fresh strawberries

1. Preheat oven to 165C°

2. Place digestive biscuit into a food  
    processor . Blend until crumbs
    form. Add melted butter and pour over 
    the crushed cookies. Mix until evently 
    moistened.







3. Press cookie mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 6" tart pan with a removable bottom. 
  



4. Bake for 7 to 8min or until golden brown.
    Let it cool.

5. Meanwhile, place chopped chocolate,
 cream and soft butter in a microwave for 20sec. Then take  the bowl out and give it a stir. Place the bowl  back in the microwave and repeat the  process until chocolate melts.



6. Arrange fresh strawberries on the cool 
    crust.



7. Pour the melted chocolate onto the 
    strawberies and refrigerate it for at least
    4 hours or until set.


8. Garnish with fresh strawberries if desired.

9. Enjoy!


Notes:

* Slice with a hot, clean knife for best results. Run it under hot water for few seconds, dry then cut. Do this between each cut.

* Double boil method can also be used to melt the chocolate

* If filling is too thick add cream and if it's too light add Chocolate

Basque Burnt Cheese Cake

       BASQUE BURNT CHEESECAKE  It is a no crust cheesecake with a rustic appearance. A soft gooey centre and not overly sweet with a hint of burnt caremal from the burnished top. This cheesecake is truly something to love.  TIPS TO BAKE BASQUE BURNT CHEESE CAKE : Make sure all ingredients are in room temperature. It ensures a smooth mixture. : Time and temperature are the most important parts of this recipe. I'm using a 6-inch cake pan. In my convection oven, I bake it at 200c for 40 minutes. (But time may vary depending on your oven). You should not bake the cake longer then indicated, even if it looks a bit wobbly in the centre. If you leave in the oven too long it will result a curdle cheesecake texture. Even though you want the cake to look dark, you don't want it to burn. If it gets too dark fast while baking, cover with aluminum foil. Should you find that your cake is almost close to baking but hasn't taken on the colour you like. What you can do is turn on the grill

 CHICKEN TIKKA BUTTER MASALA A creamy yet mildly spiced chicken dish that gives an irresistible aroma. Rich and creamy with bites of chicken . This is what call pure pleasure. Some notes on making Chicken Tikka Butter Masala - I'm using skinless chicken breast for this recipe. The chicken is marinated for at least 1 hour or overnight for better result. This give the yogart time to tenderize them, building a better result when cooking over high heat. You can use chicken thigh instead if you wish. Go with what you like. - This is a simplified recipe adapted for home use and is made without using a tandoor oven. I'm using regular non stick pan over high heat to sear the chicken. Avoid over crowding the pan helps char ( not burn) the chicken pieces instead of simmering in juices. Chicken pieces should be golden brown and slightly dark brown on the edges. - This recipe normally requires kasoori methi (dry fenugreek leaves) . It is added to the dish a very small amount. The earthy fl

Sushi Rolls

How To Make Sushi Rolls Hi guys!! For todays recipe I'll be showing you hot to make sushi rolls. Sushi is a traditional Japanese dish made with dried seaweed and cooked rice rolled with your selections of fillings. My daughter's favourite dish is sushi. Recently she's been bugging me almost every day to make sushi. At first this task was quite daunting to me. I had seen the chefs at the Japanese restaurants make sushi when we went out for dinner . It seemed so complicated and precise. How was I supposed to replicate that? So I did a little research and to my immense relief .. you dont need much to make sushi. Sure you need a few essentials like a bamboo mat and seaweed but the fillings are customisable leaving you with an endless array of options. It's also a great activity to do with your kids! Since it's the quarantine period I was a little worried on where I was going to get my ingredients. Lucky for me almost everything I needed was available online. So my daugh
