Chocolate covered Strawberries

Summers here and along come the berries.
Strawberries are my favourite. This is a quick, fun and easy to make Fruit Desert. Takes about 15 minutes to cook with minimal ingredients.

Ingredients

Ripe Strawberries
Chocolate

Procedure

• Take room temperature Strawberries, wash and dry them well. Cover a plate with Aluminium foil and set aside.

• Melt the chocolate: Take a small vessel with a little water. When the water is hot, place a small bowl that fits the top of the vessel. (Make sure the bottom does not touch the water. Chocolate has to melt in the steam.) Add cut chocolate pieces to the bowl. It takes about 4-5 minutes for the chocolate to melt. As it melt occasionally stir it. Once the chocolate has completely melted turn off the stove.
  

The chocolate should be melted on a low flame.

• Holding the stem of a strawberry dip into the chocolate. Cover ¾ of the berry with chocolate. Now hold it up for a few seconds for the excess chocolate to drip. Now place it on the plate. Do the same with the rest of the strawberries.

• Place the plate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  

Tasty Strawberries coated with chocolate are ready and waiting to be eaten.

Its tastes best when eaten on the same day.

You can use any chocolate, Milk/ Dark. Here I have used Milk chocolate. You could coat it with candies, ground almonds etc. Just dip the chocolate strawberry on the ground almonds before allowing it to cool.
