Fruit

Method

Fruit

  1. 1

    Prepare strawberries

    Rinse strawberries under cold water, hull and quarter them so pieces are roughly bite-sized (about 2 cups). Transfer to a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Prepare berries and grapes

    Rinse blueberries and raspberries, drain gently and add to the bowl. Rinse grapes, remove from stems and halve any grapes that are larger than cherry size; add to the bowl.

  3. 3

    Prepare kiwi, mango and pineapple

    Peel the kiwi and slice into rounds or half-moons. Peel and dice the mango and dice the pineapple into bite-sized pieces. Add both to the bowl.

  4. 4

    Prepare apple and banana

    Core and dice the apple into similar-size pieces; to prevent browning, toss immediately with half of the lime juice (about 1 tbs). Slice the banana and add to the bowl just before serving if you want minimal browning.

Dressing & Finish

  1. 5

    Make dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining lime juice (about 1 tbs), honey (or maple syrup), orange zest, a pinch of sea salt and finely chopped mint until combined and slightly glossy. Taste and adjust sweetness or acidity as desired.

  2. 6

    Toss fruit with dressing

    Pour the dressing over the prepared fruit in the large mixing bowl. Gently fold the fruit with a wide spoon or spatula 8–10 times to coat evenly, taking care not to crush delicate berries.

  3. 7

    Chill (optional)

    Cover and refrigerate the salad for 20–30 minutes to let flavors meld, or serve immediately for the freshest texture.

  4. 8

    Finish and serve

    Just before serving, sprinkle chopped mint if desired and optionally dust with coarse sugar or turbinado for a slight crunch. Give a final gentle toss and transfer to a serving bowl or individual bowls.
