Ingredients

Method

  1. Boil the thinly sliced sweet potato along with the can of lentils for 10 minutes. Remove and mash while hot with the dark chocolate pieces.
  2. Add the egg yolks to the mixture and beat well to combine. Incorporate the cocoa powder to enhance the chocolate flavor (optional). If you only use cocoa without chocolate, add a little olive oil.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the egg whites with honey and a few drops of lemon juice until you get a firm and frothy meringue.
  4. Fold a third of the meringue into the sweet potato and lentil mixture, integrating with gentle, enveloping movements, then add the rest of the meringue in the same way.
  5. Grease an oven-safe mold with butter and sprinkle with flour (or use parchment paper). Pour the mixture into the mold and spread the chopped walnuts on top (optional).
  6. Bake at 170 degrees until a toothpick inserted comes out clean, approximately 40 minutes. Let cool completely.
  7. Unmold the chocolate cloud when it is cold. Serve as is, its smooth texture melts in your mouth.
