AKA chocolate beans. They do it in Mexico! Well they put in on turkeys in Mexico. I contrived this delicious, unusual dish in Australia after impulse buying a bottle of red wine ‘with a hint of natural chocolate’ (Chocolate Cellar from the McLaren Vale). A couple of sips in and it was hard to prevail. We abandoned it for a nice bottle from the Barossa Valley with only an almost imperceptible (and no added hint of) chocolate flavour.
Determined not to waste the unfortunate purchase, I turned it into a delicious mole sauce with beans in place of the traditional dead birds, it went down a storm. You may not be able to get hold of chocolate wine; I dont rekomenduojame išbandyti labai sunku,en. Add a few squares of dark cooking chocolate to taste. Serve with plenty of plain brown rice, no more strong flavours needed. Very experimental, serendipitous, delicious.
