Media queen Roch-Le Bloem’s fave festive desserts

Roch-Le Bloem, 26-year-old radio personality at Algoa FM and TV producer and presenter at Bay-TV in Port Elizabeth.

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Festive celebrations are made for delicious food, great company and spending all the time we have with loved ones. With time, however, being seen as one of life’s biggest luxuries, Eastern Cape media enthusiast Roch-Le Bloem shares her top 3 “5X5 desserts”. Yes, it’s fully prepared in under 5 minutes and by using 5 or less ingredients, to show the rest of Mzansi how to make the most out of our festive time in the kitchen.

Bloem (26) holds an honours degree in Media, Communications and Broadcast Journalism, and is a well-known radio personality with Algoa FM, and also making waves as a TV producer and presenter of “So Fab With Roch” at Bay-TV. She has been in radio for five years and had to work her way up to her current position as a radio personality at Algoa FM, anchoring her own show every Saturday from 12:00-15:00.

Despite her crazy work schedule, she is also the co-founder of a non-profit organization, Cycle Sisters, which aims to gift sanitary towels to disadvantaged young women and girls.

Bloem is clearly a woman of many talents and MC’ing happens to be one of them. By being a MC at various events around the Eastern Cape, she gets to live out her purpose of making a change within the community. She’s become a mentor to many young women that are looking to find their purpose, specifically within the media industry.

Living by her motto, “You are only as good as your last show”, she dreams of a hot seat at a national radio station assisting other media lovers to follow their dreams, in the nearby future.

As a busy media personality, she has limited time to create her favourite festive desserts, but here are three of her favourite “5 X 5 desserts” – using only five ingredients with less than five minutes prep time.

Instant chocolate mousse (Chocolate Chantilly)

Recipe by: Herce This & Heston Blumenthal.

Ingredients:

  • 9, 35 ounces (265 grams) bitter sweet (70% cocoa solids) chocolate, chopped.
  • 1 cup (240 ml) water
  • 4 tbsp sugar (optional)
Instant chocolate mousse (Chocolate Chantilly)
Instant chocolate mousse (Chocolate Chantilly)

Method:

  • Place a large mixing bowl on top of another slightly smaller one; filled with ice and cold water (the bottom of the large bowl should touch the ice). Set this aside.
  • Put chocolate and water (also sugar and /or liquor if you’re using any) in a medium-sized pan and melt the chocolate over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  • Pour the melted chocolate into the mixing bowl sitting on top of ice and water, and start whisking with a wire whisk (or an electrical hand-held mixer) until thick. Watch the texture as you whip and make sure not to over whip as it will make the mousse grainy. If the mousse becomes grainy (which is possible at your first try), transfer back into the pan, reheat until half of it is melted, pour back to the mixing bowl and whisk again briefly.
  • Divide into four serving cups and serve immediately.

THE NEW FACE OF SOUTH AFRICAN AGRICULTURE

With 11 global awards in the first three years of its existence, Food For Mzansi is much more than an agriculture publication. It is a movement, unashamedly saluting the unsung heroes of South African agriculture. We believe in the power of agriculture to promote nation building and social cohesion by telling stories that are often overlooked by broader society.
