Ingredients:

• • 100g Mozzarella cheese
  • 1 onion

• • 50g flour
  • 100g bread crumbs
  • 2 eggs

• Cooking oil

Directions:

Prepare the Cheese and Onion:

1. 1. Slice the Cheese: Slice 100g of mozzarella cheese into strips that are about 0.5 cm wide and long enough to fit inside the onion rings. Set aside.
   2. Slice the Onion: Peel and slice 1 onion into rings about 1.5-2 cm thick. Separate the onion rings and choose pairs with a 0.3-0.5 cm difference in diameter. This will allow you to sandwich the mozzarella strips between the rings.

Assemble the Onion Rings:

1. Stuff the Onion Rings: Place a mozzarella strip inside the gaps between each pair of onion rings. Ensure the cheese fits snugly and is completely enclosed by the onion rings to prevent it from leaking out during frying.

Prepare the Coatings:

1. 1. Set Up Coating Stations: Prepare three bowls:
      • • Bowl 1: 50g of flour.
        • Bowl 2: Crack 2 eggs into the bowl and whisk them well.

       

      • Bowl 3: 100g of bread crumbs.
   2. Coat the Onion Rings:
      • • First, coat each stuffed onion ring in flour, ensuring all sides are covered.

       

      • Next, dip the floured onion ring into the whisked eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
      • Finally, coat the ring in bread crumbs, pressing gently to adhere. For extra crispiness and to prevent cheese leakage, repeat the egg and bread crumb coating step.

Fry the Onion Rings:

1. Heat the Oil: Heat cooking oil in a deep pan or fryer over medium heat. The oil should be deep enough to submerge the onion rings.
2. Fry Until Golden Brown: Carefully place the coated onion rings into the hot oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even frying.

Drain and Serve:

1. 1. Drain Excess Oil: Remove the fried onion rings from the oil and place them on a paper towel to drain any excess oil.

1. Serve Hot: Serve the mozzarella onion rings hot, and enjoy the gooey, cheesy goodness!

Tips and Sharing:

• • Cheese Alternatives: Try using other types of cheese like cheddar or pepper jack for a different flavor profile.
  • Dipping Sauces: Serve the onion rings with a variety of dipping sauces such as marinara, ranch, or spicy aioli for an extra layer of flavor.

• Make Ahead: You can assemble the onion rings ahead of time and freeze them before frying. Simply fry them straight from the freezer, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
• Storage: Leftover onion rings can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat them in the oven or air fryer to maintain their crispiness.
• Customization: Add your favorite spices to the bread crumbs for an extra kick. Paprika, garlic powder, or Italian seasoning work well.

Ingredients

• 6 small or 4 medium-sized sweet apples (such as Gala, Fuji, or Honeycrisp)
• Water (enough to cover the apples in the saucepan)
• 250g (8.8 oz) sugar-free chocolate (dark or milk chocolate, depending on preference)
• 6-inch (15 cm) baking dish

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Apples

• Peel, Core, and Chop the Apples: Start by peeling the apples to remove the skin, then core them and chop them into medium-sized chunks. The apples will cook faster when chopped into smaller pieces, ensuring an even texture when blended.

2. Cook the Apples

• • Simmer the Apples: Place the chopped apples in a medium saucepan and cover them with enough water to submerge the pieces. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Allow the apples to cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and soft. You can test this by piercing the apples with a fork—if they easily break apart, they’re ready.
  • Drain and Blend: Once the apples are tender, drain the water and transfer the apples to a blender or food processor. Blend until the apples form a smooth purée with no lumps. Set the purée aside to cool slightly.

3. Melt the Chocolate

• Melt the Sugar-Free Chocolate: While the apple purée is cooling, melt 250g of sugar-free chocolate using a double boiler. If you don’t have a double boiler, you can melt the chocolate in the microwave by heating it in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval to ensure the chocolate doesn’t burn. Continue until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.

4. Combine the Apples and Chocolate

• Mix the Purée with Chocolate: Once both the apple purée and melted chocolate are ready, combine them in a mixing bowl. Stir the mixture thoroughly until the chocolate is fully incorporated with the apple purée. The mixture should be smooth, creamy, and uniform in color.

5. Pour into the Baking Dish

• Transfer to a Baking Dish: Pour the chocolate-apple mixture into a 6-inch (15 cm) baking dish, spreading it out evenly to create a smooth surface. The size of the baking dish ensures the dessert will be thick enough to hold its shape once set.

6. Cool and Set

• Cool at Room Temperature: Allow the dessert to cool at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes.
• Refrigerate: After it has cooled down, transfer the baking dish to the refrigerator. Let it chill for 2-3 hours or until fully set. This chilling time allows the dessert to firm up, making it easier to slice and serve.

7. Serve and Enjoy

• Slice and Serve: Once the dessert is set, remove it from the refrigerator and slice it into even pieces. You can serve the slices as-is or pair them with fresh berries or a dollop of whipped  cream for added flavor.

Tips for the Perfect Chocolate Apple Dessert:

• Choosing the Right Apples: Use sweet apples like Gala, Fuji, or Honeycrisp for a naturally sweet purée. If you prefer a slightly tangy taste, mix in a tart apple variety like Granny Smith.
• Optional Add-Ins: For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the apple purée before mixing it with the chocolate. This will give the dessert a warm, spiced flavor.
• Serving Suggestion: Serve this dessert with a sprinkle of crushed nuts or a dusting of cocoa powder for an elegant finish.

Brush the pie with beaten egg for a golden finish. Sprinkle with sesame seeds or nigella seeds, if desired.

Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
