Ingredients

Ice Cream

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

  • 1 teaspoon salt

Sesame Brittle

  • 1 cup sesame seeds

  • 1/2 cup almonds

  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Chocolate Sauce

  • 1 tablespoon brandy

For Assembly

Directions

Prepare the Ice Cream

1.

Remove the ice cream from the freezer to thaw for approximately 30 minutes.

2.

Place all the ingredients in a food processor. With the S blade, pulse a few times until the ice cream is completely smooth. Place the mixture in a container or in silicone molds; freeze until firm.

Prepare the Sesame Brittle

1.

Place all the ingredients in a nonstick sauté pan and heat over medium heat. The mixture will begin to bubble and darken. Stir nearly continuously.

2.

When the mixture is a deep caramel color, pour it onto a baking sheet lined with a Silpat or parchment paper. Use a spatula to smooth the mixture into a rectangle about half an inch thick. Allow to cool completely.

3.

Turn the block onto a cutting board and cut into strips, or crack it into brittle shards.

Prepare the Chocolate Sauce

1.

Place the coconut milk in a small saucepan and bring to a gentle boil.

2.

Immediately pour it over the chocolate and stir until smooth and uniform.

3.

Add the brandy. Serve warm.

Notes:

Make the chocolate sauce just before serving.

To Serve

1.

Brush plate with chocolate sauce. I used a clean paint brush (used exclusively for food) to achieve the brush-stroke look.

2.

Top with one ice cream serving (this one was frozen ahead in a silicone mold).

3.

Sprinkle exposed chocolate with crushed halva and sesame brittle.

4.

Finish with mint leaves.
