Tropical Fruit Salad

You will need



• 1 ripe mandarin
• 2 ripe bananas
• 2 ripe mangoes
• 1 small pineapple
• 1 medium ripe pawpaw
• Other available fruits
• 1/3 cup mandarin juice


Method



1. Wash, peel, remove seeds of mangoes and
pawpaw. Peel mandarin and remove seeds
and membrane separating the sections.
2. Peel pineapple, chop and place at the
bottom of a bowl. Arrange the layer of
sliced banana next and add mandarin juice.
This will help slow discoloration of
bananas. Some sugar may need to be
added to the juice to sweeten it.
3. Chop all other fruit into small pieces
and add to the bowl.
4. Serve with freshly made thick coconut
cream, or ice cream, or by itself.
