Your own home made fruit salad is extremely easy to make taking about 5 minutes to prepare. It's a light refreshing end to a meal, and is great to prepare in advance of a dinner party to impress your guests.
Ingredients
- 1/4 water melon
- 4 Nectarines
- 2 bunches of grapes
- 2 bananas
- 12 lychees
Method
- Wash you hands and wash all the fruit.
- Chop water melon into slices and then into large cubes and place in a mixing bowl.
- Cut around the nectarines with a sharp knife and twist to split into halves. Remove the seed with a teaspoon. Then chop the nectaries in to bite sized chunks. Add to the mixing bowl.
- Pick your grapes and add them to the mixing bowl
- Chop your bananas and add to the mixing bowl. (You might want to add banana prior to serving to prevent them turning brown).
- If you can buy fresh lychees, they are a very sweet tropical treat to add to a fruit salad. Otherwise, you can buy them from your supermarket peeled in a tin which is just as nice. Add to the mixing bowl.
- Liberally squeeze lemon juice over the fruit and lightly toss in the mixing bowl.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in the bottom of your fridge until you are ready to serve.
- Serve in dessert bowls with a dollop of thickened cream or ice cream (gluten free).
