Ingredients You’ll Need

• 2 cups raw pistachios (250g)
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 50 g white chocolate (melted, optional for creaminess)
• 1/2 tsp matcha powder (optional for color)

Chef Notes:

How to Make It

1. Prep Your Ingredients: Begin by washing the strawberries and drying them thoroughly. Each berry should be ready to absorb that delightful chocolatey goodness!

2. Prepare the Pistachio Spread: In a food processor, blend the raw pistachios and salt until they turn into a creamy paste. This should take a few minutes, so be patient as it transforms!

3. Mix In Optional Ingredients: If you’re using melted white chocolate and matcha powder, add them to the pistachio paste now. Blend until fully combined. The mixture should be smooth and luscious.

4. Coat the Strawberries: Take each strawberry and dip it into the pistachio spread. Ensure they are well-coated, leaving a little at the top uncovered for that classic strawberry look.

5. Melt Your Dark Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips with coconut oil. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.

6. Dip Into Chocolate: Dip the pistachio-coated strawberries into the melted dark chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.

7. Add Toppings: While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle shredded coconut over the top. You can also lightly crush some extra pistachios for an added crunch.

8. Let Them Set: Place the dipped strawberries on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for about 10-15 minutes until the chocolate hardens.

9. Serve & Enjoy: Once set, serve these Dubai Chocolate Strawberries fresh, and watch your guests indulge with delight.

Kitchen Tips (From My Kitchen)

1. Time-Saver: Melt your chocolate while you prepare the pistachio spread.
2. Common Mistake: Don’t crowd the bowl with chocolate – work in batches to keep the dipping process smooth.
3. Variation: Consider adding a splash of chili powder to the chocolate for a spicy kick.
