How To Make Fruit Salad Recipes

HOW TO MAKE FRUIT SALAD

Steps:

• Cut the strawberries and peaches into 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) slices. Rinse 1 pound (450 g) of hulled strawberries and 3 medium peaches. Then use a paring knife to cut the fruit into thin, even slices. If you can't find ripe peaches, substitute plums, loquats, or nectarines.
• Toss the strawberries, peaches, blueberries, and basil together. Scoop the sliced strawberries and peaches into a serving bowl. Add 1 cup (100 g) of blueberries and 1 tablespoon (2 g) of fresh, chopped basil or mint. Use salad tongs or 2 large spoons to gently mix the fruit. If you prefer, use blackberries or raspberries instead of the blueberries.
• Pour the lemon juice, maple syrup, and balsamic vinegar on the fruit. You'll need 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of lemon juice, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of maple syrup or honey, and 2 teaspoons (9.9 ml) of balsamic vinegar. The balsamic vinegar will give the fruit salad a slight tangy flavor. For a milder flavor, leave it out.
• Mix the fruit salad and serve it immediately. Toss the fruit with the liquids until the fruit is coated. You can serve the fruit salad immediately or chill it until you're ready to eat. Refrigerate the fruit salad for up to 2 days. Keep in mind that the fruit salad will soften and liquid will pool in the bottom of the dish the longer it's stored.

VERY EASY FRUIT SALAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the strawberries, grapes, kiwis, and bananas. Gently mix in peaches. Chill for 1 hour before serving.

FRUIT SALAD

Steps:

• Prepare the fruit with a small serrated knife. Cut the top and bottom off the kiwi, stand it up on one of its flat surfaces and cut away the skin, keeping the knife as close to the skin as possible. Slice in half, following the core through the centre, then cut each half into slices. Put in a bowl and repeat with the other kiwi.
• Carefully cut the skin off the mango and slice off each cheek, running your knife as close to the stone as you can. Cut each piece into slices. Remove any remaining fruit from the stone in long thin slices. Add the mango to the kiwi.
• Top and tail the pineapple, then in a similar way to the kiwi, cut away the skin. Use your knife to go around the pineapple, taking out the divets or eyes, two to three at a time, you'll be left with a spiral pattern weaving around the outside of the fruit. Take of a circular slice, roughly 150g, quarter, remove the core then cut into chunks. Add to the bowl.
• Halve the grapes and add to the rest of the fruit along with the berries, you may want to slice or halve strawberries if they're large. Remove the peel from the orange using the same method as the kiwi and pineapple. Holding the orange over the bowl of fruit, remove the orange segments by carefully cutting between the membrane and the fruit. The pieces should fall out into the bowl along with any juice. Squeeze the membrane over the fruit to extract the juice, add a drizzle of honey, if you like. Mix everything together and leave in the fridge to macerate for 30 mins, if you have time.
