Blogger Takeover: Dragon Fruit Salad
Here's our food blogger Janey Green and her exotic Dragon Fruit Salad, a perfect recipe to try out this Bank Holiday!
Here's a fabulous way to introduce some healthy tropical sunshine in the guise of a dessert! This simple but completely stunning fruit salad only takes a few minutes to make but those extra flavour touches make all the difference.
Simply mix raspberries, strawberries and green grapes with a couple of teaspoons of rose essence and some torn fresh mint leaves. The rose gives a perfumed hint to the soft fruits while the mint refreshes and cleanses the palate.
Although a little bland in flavour, dragon fruit is visually exquisite and turns an ordinary dish into a designer dessert.
Cut the fruit into sections, leaving the skin on, then loosen the flesh with a knife, leaving it attached at one end. Arrange the slices around the dish.
Finally, top with a sprig of fresh mint and some pomegranate seeds for a bejewelled finish.
Wow!
