Ingredients
- Dark chocolate, 85%4 squares, about 20 g
- Almonds20 g (about 16)
- SaltA few flakes
Method
Toast the almonds in a dry frying pan over a medium heat for four to five minutes, shaking the pan often, until they smell nutty and the skins darken.
Tip them onto a plate with a few flakes of salt and leave to cool for a couple of minutes; they crisp as they cool.
Break the chocolate into squares and eat the two together, a square with a couple of almonds. Warm almonds and cold chocolate is the point.
Worth knowing
- Twenty grams of almonds is about sixteen and is weighed, not guessed. A hand dipped into the bag comes out with nearer forty.
- Chocolate and almonds are both mostly fat, so this is a snack where nearly all the calories are fat and it is eaten slowly for it.
