Foodie Friday: Choc orange tart with hazelnut-oat crust

Foodie Friday

This recipe was developed by Minako Umehara @365cleaneats for Naked Foods.

Raw Orange Chocolate Tart with Hazelnut-Oat Crust (Vegan, Gluten Free)

This cake is kind of like the lovechild of a jaffa and a hazelnut – except creamy and fudgy, with a subtle hint of orange that doesn’t overpower. The crust was the perfect match – nutty, subtly sweet and crunchy.

Prep time: 10 minutes | Cooking time: 20 minutes | Freezing Time: Overnight | Serves: 4

Vegan, gluten and dairy free.

Ingredients 

Crust

Chocolate Filling

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 170⁰C (340⁰F). Place all dry crust ingredients in a food processor. Process well until it reaches the consistency of flour. 
  2. Add melted coconut oil to the food processor and process until it becomes like wet sand. 
  3. Press the mixture against the sides and the bottom of the tart tin. Bake it for about 17-20 min or until golden brown. Let it cool. 
  4. While cooling the crust, place all chocolate filling ingredients in a high-speed blender and blend well. Add more sweetener if you need. Layer it over the crust, and freeze it over night.
  5. Take out from the tart tin and garnish. Store in the fridge.

We used a 10cm × 25cm × 2.5cm (550ml) tart tin with a removable base to make this one, however you can use any tin with a removable base you have at home that is around this size.

Foodie Friday: Smoked & spiced chicken & chickpea salad

We love the look of this new Smoked & Spiced Vitality Salad from Chargrill Charlie’s, one of three new anti-ageing salads developed with nutritionist, Liv Kaplan. They’re designed to leave your body full of energy and skin glowing heading in to Spring. Sounds good to us! In all 10 Chargrill Charlie’s stores for this month only.

Enjoy chicken and chickpeas cooked in a smokey paprika and lime marinade, on top of a tahini kale salad.

Serves 4 | Gluten and diary free.

Ingredients

Paprika chicken and chickpeas
500g chicken thigh
1 tbsp smoked paprika
2 garlic cloves, crushed
Juice of 1 lime
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp sea salt
1 cup chickpeas, rinsed and drained

Salad
1 bunch kale, roughly torn
1 cucumber, chopped
Fresh chilli, chopped

Tahini dressing
2 tbsp tahini
Juice of 1 medium lemon
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 tsp sea salt
1-2 tbsp warm water
2 tbsp olive oil

Method

(Paprika chicken and chickpeas)

Preheat the oven to 180C.

In a bowl, combine the chicken with the paprika, garlic, lime juice, olive oil and salt.

Heat a medium pan to a high heat and sear the chicken thighs on each side, pouring the leftover marinade into the pan. Transfer to an oven safe dish and continue cooking in the oven for 20 minutes or until cooked.

Remove from the oven and shred roughly. Pour the chickpeas into the dish and toss chicken and chickpeas together to coat in the juices.

(Tahini dressing)

Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk together until smooth.

(Kale salad)

Place the roughly torn kale in a large bowl and pour over dressing. Using hands or tongs, massage the dressing into the kale until it breaks down and is coated in dressing. Toss in cucumber.

To serve, use kale salad as a base, top with chicken and chickpea mixture, drizzle over extra tahini dressing and top with fresh chilli.

Important points: The chicken must be roughly shredded using forks as opposed to sliced. It must also be done while still warm so it soaks up the juices.

Kale is best massaged to break down the fibres and let it absorb the flavour of the dressing.
