Ingredients:

  • 100g dark chocolate, chopped

  • 250g pasta of your choice

Kitchen Tools:

  • saucepan
  • wooden spoon
  • whisk

To start, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to package instructions. In a saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the minced garlic. Cook until fragrant, then add the chili flakes and cocoa powder, stirring well to combine.

Next, pour in the cream and chopped dark chocolate, whisking continuously until the chocolate has melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Once the pasta is cooked, drain it in a colander and add it directly to the chocolate sauce. Toss the pasta in the sauce until it is well coated. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

This Spicy Chocolate Pasta serves 4 people, with each serving weighing approximately 275g. One serving is around 450 calories.

One unique tip for this dish is to sprinkle a bit of extra chili flakes on top before serving for an added kick of heat and flavor.

I hope you give this adventurous recipe a try and enjoy the surprising combination of spicy and sweet flavors. Feel free to get creative and make it your own by adding your favorite ingredients or adjusting the spice level to suit your taste. Happy cooking!
