Rich Chocolate Sauce with Fillet Steak
So you thought you could only have chocolate as a sweet. Try this very different idea instead. A real treat.

An impressive idea, to change and broaden the use of chocolate. When sweet and savoury flavours are mixed, we get a whole different idea about the use of chocolate in cooking. Why not try this out for your next dinner party. I wonder which wine, red or white would compliment this dish.

Ingredients
750ml (3 cups) semi sweet (dark) chocolate
150 ml (3-5 cups) water
30ml (2 tablespoons) whole grain mustard
15ml (1 tablespoon) sugar.

Method
1. Place all the ingredients into a saucepan and gently heat, stirring all the time.

2. When melted and mixed, serve over cooked slices of fillet steak, rare, medium or well done according to your individual taste.

3. To decorate add dabs of cream and fresh chopped chives.

4. Serve with either a salad or cooked vegetables.

A very different taste but extremely enjoyable. It makes a good conversation piece!

Extra tip
When making your next chilli con carne, add ½ block (slab) of rich semi sweet (dark) chocolate just before serving. Stir well and wait for the comments.
