Christmas salad is an essential dish on the festive menu.
Salad recipes for Christmas usually consist of some kind of mayonnaise or tartar sauce recipe.
However, we now present a recipe for a fruit salad, which is flavoured with liqueur and served with oranges to make it really festive. It tastes great on its own, but with a little chestnut puree, whipped cream or custard, it’s simply irresistible. Although fruit salads are not common in winter and ingredients can be a challenge to find, with the right recipe it shouldn’t be a problem.
Let’s see what you need for this Christmas fruit salad recipe:
– 4 kiwi
– 2 apples
– 1 pomegranate
– 1 lemon
– 4 oranges
– 2 bananas
– 1 bunch of grapes
– one whole clove
– 3 cl fruit liqueur
The mixed fruit salad takes about 20 minutes to prepare.
Peel the fruit first. Cut off the tops of the oranges, scoop out the insides and put the remaining peels away to serve. Cut the kiwi, apple, banana and strawberry in half and pour into a bowl. Then add the pomegranate seeds and grape seeds. Just put the fruit salad in the fridge for a few hours, covered, to allow the flavours to blend well. It’s time to serve. Take out the carved oranges and dredge them with cinnamon sticks.
Your salad is ready.
