FRUIT AMBROSIA RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• For the coconut: Preheat the oven to 350F and spread the coconut in an even layer. Toast for 8-10 minutes, turning the coconut (with a spatula) halfway between. Watch closely, that it's ready when it turns golden brown. If you're not careful, it can easily burn. Set aside to cool. For the fruit: Grate 1 teaspoon zest from 1 orange; set aside. Cut away peel and pith from oranges and grapefruits. Quarter oranges and grapefruits, then slice crosswise into ¼-inch-thick pieces. NOTE: I recommend using the "supreme" method of slicing the grapefruits, which is more time-consuming. This isn't mandatory, but the membrane in between slices can be a bit "chewy". Combine oranges, grapefruits, pineapple. Taste the fruit. I find that my fruit was very fresh, and quite sweet (including the grapefruit) so I didn't need to add sugar. Otherwise, add 2 tablespoons sugar in bowl and toss gently to combine. Transfer fruit mixture to colander set over bowl and let drain for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally; discard liquid (or save for another use). NOTE You can prepare the fruit up to 24 hours in advance and the dressing up to 4 hours ahead. For the whipped cream: Using a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip cream, sour cream, remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, orange zest, and vanilla together on medium-low speed until foamy, about 1 minute. Increase speed to high and whip until stiff peaks form, 1 to 3 minutes. Taste the whipped cream. I found that I needed to add a couple more tablespoons of sugar and a little more vanilla. So, adjust to your personal taste. NOTE: For makeahead, refrigerate the components separately and combine to serve. Gently fold fruit mixture, whipped cream mixture, and coconut together in bowl. Serve.
