Fruit Salad
Equipment required:
- Knife
- Chopping Board
- Bowl
- Citrus Juicer
Ingredients:
- Selection of your favourite ripe fruits
How to:
- Choose a selection of your favourite ripe fruits (we like mango, red grapefruit and apple)
- Peel if necessary and chop into bite sized pieces (get an adult to help you if you are not used to chopping on your own)
- Mix together in a bowl with some lemon or orange juice to give extra flavour. If you have chosen a fruit such a apple this citrus juice will also help stop the fruit going brown
- Eat straight away or leave for 30 minutes or so for the flavours to mix together
- Serve at room temperature to fully be able to taste the flavours
|
THG Tip: |
If adding banana to your fruit salad, do so at the last minute before serving so that the banana stays firm in texture. |

Use only ripe mangoes for this recipe - for the most delicious flavour. A mango is ripe when it is soft and has a sweet smell. | | | |
