Warrens Chocolate Orange

Ingredients
2 Oranges
2 Pears (peeled, cored and halved)
2 Apples (peeled, cored and quartered)
1 Lemon (juiced)
50g Butter
4 Tablespoons Muscovado Sugar
75g Chocolate
4 Tablespoons Double/Whipping Cream

Equipment
1 Zester/Juicer
1 Chopping Board
1 SHARP Knife
1 Frying Pan
1 Glass Bowl
1 Large Pan
1 Spoon
1 Grater

The Good Bit
  1. Remove the zest from one orange and keep to one side then grate 1 teaspoon of zest from the second, now remove the rest of the skin from both oranges and slice into thick chunks saving any juice.
  2. Melt your butter in the frying pan and add the sugar until dissolved then add the zest from the first orange along with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, the apples pears and orange slices, cook for 5 minutes until soft.
  3. Heat some water in the pan and put your glass bowl in it, break the chocolate into the glass bowl and melt (or you can do this without the water and pan using a microwave, trying 30seconds at a time) add in the grated orange rind and juice and the cream and stir well.
  4. Serve the fruit between four bowls and drizzle over the chocolate.
