Recipe of the Week - Chocolate and Banana Spring Rolls

Ordinarily I could eat Spring Rolls until the cows come home but this recipe from the Times Live takes my love of Spring Rolls to a completely different level! This simple recipe takes approximately 25 minutes to make and is served with a pineapple and chilli compote.


INGREDIENTS

* 2 bananas
* 250g dark chocolate chips
* Few sprigs mint, finely chopped
* 12 springroll pastry squares
* 1 egg
* 1 pineapple
* 75g sugar
* 1 chilli, finely chopped


METHOD

1. To make the filling for the springrolls: Mash the banana and fold in the chocolate chips and chopped mint.

2. Lay a square of springroll pastry down and place a small log of the mixture along the one side.

3. Egg-wash the pastry; then roll up into a cylinder shape, turning in the sides to seal.

4. Deep-fry the springrolls until golden and serve with the compote.

5. To make the compote: Chop the pineapple into small cubes, place it into a pot with the finely chopped chilli, add the sugar and about a cup of water.

6. Stir continuously until the sugar has dissolved. Allow to simmer until the pineapple is soft and the liquid has turned to a syrup.
