Ingredients
Scale
- 200g kataifi pastry
- 150g dark chocolate (70% cocoa), chopped
- 100g milk chocolate, chopped
- 50g unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1/4 cup chopped pistachios (optional)
- 1/4 tsp sea salt flakes
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Place the kataifi pastry in a large bowl and gently shred it into smaller pieces.
- Melt the butter and honey together in a small saucepan over low heat.
- Pour the melted butter and honey mixture over the kataifi and toss gently to coat evenly.
- Spread the coated kataifi evenly on the prepared baking tray and bake for 10–12 minutes until golden and crispy. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- While the kataifi cools, melt the dark and milk chocolates separately using a double boiler or microwave in short bursts, stirring frequently.
- Layer half of the baked kataifi on parchment paper, drizzle with half of the dark chocolate, then sprinkle with some pistachios and sea salt.
- Repeat with the remaining kataifi and milk chocolate, topping again with pistachios and a pinch of sea salt.
- Allow the bark to set at room temperature or chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes until firm.
- Break into irregular pieces and serve.
Notes
For an extra indulgent touch, drizzle the bark with white chocolate or add dried fruit such as cranberries before the chocolate sets.
