Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole Fresh oranges
- 200 grams Dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher)
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil
- 1 pinch Sea salt flakes (optional)
Instructions
1. Prepare the oranges by slicing off both ends of each orange. Carefully peel the skin and remove all white pith using a sharp knife.
2. Segment the oranges into supremes by cutting each segment away from the membrane, creating clean, pith-free slices. Place the segments on a tray lined with parchment paper and pat them dry with a paper towel.
3. Melt the dark chocolate by breaking it into small pieces and placing it in a heatproof bowl. Add the coconut oil to the chocolate.
4. Using a double boiler or microwave, gently melt the chocolate. If using a microwave, melt the chocolate in 20-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until smooth and glossy.
5. Dip each orange segment halfway into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess chocolate to drip off before placing it back on the parchment-lined tray.
6. Optional: Sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt flakes on the chocolate-dipped portion of the orange for added flavor and texture.
7. Once all the segments are dipped, refrigerate the tray for 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate is fully set.
8. Serve the Chocolate Dipped Orange Supremes immediately, or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
