      Procedure

      1. Chop the chocolate finely and add it to a double boiler (heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water); stir occasionally until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
      2. To a bowl, whisk the yolks with 1/4 cup sugar until pale and doubled in volume; fold the egg mixture into the melted chocolate together with the instant coffee powder and crushed cardamom pods; set aside.
      3. To another bowl, whip up the heavy cream; save 4 tbsp for serving; add the whipped cream to the chocolate mixture and mix well; set aside.
      4. To another bowl, whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form; gradually incorporate the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar while continuously mixing until a glossy meringue is formed.
      5. Working in thirds, fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture.
      6. Divide the chocolate mousse into 4 serving glasses and refrigerate until firm, for 2-3 hours.
      7. Serve with whipped cream, shaved chocolate and flake sea salt on top.
