CHOCOLATE-SOUR CREAM FONDUE

• Pour chocolate mixture into fondue or chafing dish to keep warm. Spear fruit and cake with fondue forks; dip and swirl in fondue with stirring motion. If mixture becomes too thick, stir in small amount of half-and-half.

MEAT FONDUE

Steps:

• Prepare your sauces (see below) in advance, and put in little bowls around the fondue burner, along with the meat, bread and salad. Season the meat.
• When your guests are ready to eat, fill your fondue pan half-full of vegetable oil and heat on the hob until it's hot, but not smoking. You're aiming for around 190C, but if you haven't got a thermometer, throw in a cube of bread - when it takes about 30 secs to brown, it's ready.
• Put the fondue burner on the table carefully so that it's stable, then, following the manufacturer's instructions, light the flame and put the pan on top.
• Give each guest a fondue fork for dunking the meat in the hot oil. It should take 25-30 secs for rare, 30-35 secs for medium and 45-60 secs for well done. When the meat is cooked, dip it into the sauces, and pile it onto the bread. If you have some raw king prawns to cook in the fondue, they work really well too. CORRECTION NOTICEPlease be informed that in the July issue of BBC Good Food Magazine, it incorrectly stated that the temperature of the oil in this recipe should be 375C, the correct temperature of the oil should be 375 Fahrenheit or 190C.

CHOCOLATE SOUR CREAM FUDGE

Steps:

• Butter an 8 inch square baking dish, and set aside. In a heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, sour cream, corn syrup and butter. Bring to a boil; cover and cook one minute. Stir until well blended. Remove the lid, and without stirring, heat to between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface.
• Remove from the heat, and add the chocolate and vanilla. Do not stir. Set the pan over a wire rack until the mixture cools to about 175 degrees F (80 degrees C). This should take about 15 minutes.
• Beat the fudge with a wooden spoon until it thickens and loses its gloss. Stir in walnuts, and pour into the buttered dish. Spread evenly, then set aside to cool. Cut into small squares.
