Two Raw Sisters: Easter chocolate bowls

dark chocolate

water balloons

Scoop ice cream of

Add your chocolate into a heatproof bowl and melt over a double boiler. Once it is melted, leave too cool until it is at room temperature.

While the chocolate is cooling, blow up the water balloons to the size you want your bowls to be and tie them off.

Line a flat baking tray with baking paper.

Once your chocolate has reached room temperature, hold a balloon at the top and begin to dip the bottom in chocolate. Swirling it around so it has a good layer of chocolate and the chocolate comes a third to halfway up the balloon (depending on how big you blew them up).

Gently move the balloon to the lined baking paper, holding it there until the chocolate slightly drips to create a base for the bowl.

Repeat until you have used all of your balloons.

You should have a little leftover chocolate and scattered space on your baking tray. With this, make little bunny faces and ears placing puffed quinoa as the eyes of the face.

Place the baking tray into the freezer for 20-30mins.

Once set, remove balloons from freezer. Press around the sides gently, breaking the seal between the balloon and the chocolate. Then lightly pierce the balloon with a knife and slowly release the air from the balloon, removing any excess balloon.

Fill balloons with ice cream and top with the little bunny faces. Serve immediately. (Leftover bowls will store in your freezer in an airtight container for up to 5 months.)

One-pan prawn pasta

Water

300 g Fettuccine (Main)

Onion, thinly sliced

Cherry tomatoes, halved

Garlic,

Chilli,

Basil leaves

Tbsp Olive oil

Raw prawns, shelled and deveined (Main)

Bring the water to the boil in a large saucepan. Add all the other ingredients except the prawns. Boil until the pasta is just cooked, stirring often. Add the prawns and poach for 1-2 minutes, until pink.

Drain and serve in bowls. Great seasoned with freshly ground black pepper, a little extra olive oil and grated parmesan cheese.

Side of salmon

½ kgs Salmon, 1 side, skin

Garlic, olive oil

Sea salt flakes

Tbsp Dill

Meyer lemon,

Line your largest oven tray with a doubled piece of baking paper. Rub salmon all over with garlic oil, and place skin side down on paper.

Season salmon with a little salt, scatter with dill sprigs and add lemon wedges too. Bake for 20-25 minutes for mediumrare, or for 30 minutes for medium. Check fish with small knife by testing whether flakes will gently pull apart in thickest section: medium–rare flakes will still look partly transluscent below the surface, but medium cooked fish will be opaque. Remove from oven and rest for 10 minutes (or allow to cool) before serving. Discard lemons.

The double layer of baking paper might help you transfer the salmon to a serving platter — just slide paper out from under fish once it's safely on the platter. When serving, cut down to just above skin, then turn knife and cut fish off skin. To break into large chunks, serve using two large tablespoons.

Lentil, kumara and cavolo nero stew

Onion,

Carrot,

Celery,

Garlic, chopped

Dry herbs

Water, boiling

300 g Kumara, peeled and diced (Main)

Red lentils, well washed (Main)

Diced tomato, 400 grams

Cavolo nero, leaves, discard any thick stalks (Main)

Sauté the onion, carrot, celery and garlic in the oil in a large saucepan, until softened. Stir in the herbs, water, kumara and lentils. Cover and simmer for about 20 minutes until the kumara and lentils are just cooked. Add the tomatoes, seasonings and cavolo nero. Simmer until the cavolo nero is tender.

Great served in bowls topped with sour cream or coriander pesto. (1 bunch coriander, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 3 tablespoons pine nuts, puréed until smooth).
