                         Chocolate Ginger Lychees
Recipe By     :Chinese Cooking Class Cookbook; Australian Women's Weekly
Serving Size  : 20    Preparation Time :0:00
Categories    : Volume 3-10, October 2000
  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  576            grams  lychees -- (1 can)
                        [about 20 ounces]
  60             grams  preserved ginger
                        [about 2 ounces]
  185            grams  dark chocolate
                        [about 6 ounces]
  15             grams  solid white vegetable shortening 
                          -- (try Crisco*) [1/2 ounce]
Drain the lychees and place on paper towel for about 1 hour or until 
they are dry on the outside. Pat them occasionally with the towel 
because you need to make sure they are really dry or the chocolate 
won't stick.
Cut the preserved ginger into thin slivers. Preserved ginger usually 
comes in a jar. You might try using the candied ginger but you would 
have to make sure it is really fresh and soft; also I would suggest 
rinsing the sugary coating off the outside. Carefully stuff each lychee 
with the ginger.
Place the chocolate and vegetable shortening in the top of a double 
boiler; stir over simmering water until the chocolate has melted. Make 
sure the water doesn't reach the pot containing the chocolate. Allow to 
cool slightly.
Dip the lychees into the chocolate. Using a fork, lift them out and tap 
the fork gently on the side of the pan to drain any excess chocolate. 
Place on a greased wax-paper-lined tray or baking sheet. Refrigerate 
until the chocolate is hard.
Drizzle any remaining chocolate off the tip of a small spoon over the 
lychees in a decorative pattern.
Store in the refrigerator.
Yields about 20.

printed in 1978; ISBN 0 949128 73 2.
* If you can, get it you might use Copha which is a solid coconut oil-
based shortening used quite commonly in Australia. Otherwise, try 
something like Crisco or even unsalted uncoloured solid margarine.
My note - Ginger and chocolate are a scrumptious combination.

**You can find commercial fruit sweeteners, ordinarily a combination
of concentrated peach & pear juices and unsweetened pineapple syrup, in
health food stores, gourmet food stores and large grocery outlets. It 
tastes 1 1/2 to 2 times sweeter than refined sugar. You can also make
your own fruit sweetener. For example, if a recipe calls for 1/2 cup
fruit sweetener, you can substitute 1/4 cup concentrated apple 
juice + 1/4 cup granulated fructose.
