Description
A refreshing and vibrant fruit salad featuring a mix of strawberries, mangoes, pineapple, kiwis, and blueberries, lightly dressed with orange juice and a hint of rose water for a fragrant twist. Perfect as a healthy snack or a light dessert.
Ingredients
Fruit
- 2 cups strawberries (hulled and diced)
- 2 mangoes (diced)
- 2 cups pineapple (diced)
- 4 kiwis (diced)
- 2 cups blueberries
Dressing
- ½ cup orange juice
- 2 teaspoons rose water (optional)
Instructions
- Combine Fruits: Place all the prepared fruits—strawberries, mangoes, pineapple, kiwis, and blueberries—together in a large mixing bowl to create the base of the fruit salad.
- Add Dressing: Pour the orange juice and rose water (if using) over the mixed fruits. Toss gently with a spoon or spatula to evenly coat all pieces without bruising the delicate fruit.
- Serve or Chill: You can serve the fruit salad immediately at room temperature for a fresh taste, or chill it in the refrigerator for one hour to enhance the flavors and offer a cool, refreshing serving experience.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe fruits for the best flavor and texture.
- Rose water adds a unique floral note but can be omitted if unavailable or undesired.
- Chilling the salad helps the flavors meld but avoid leaving it too long to prevent fruit from becoming mushy.
- For variety, other seasonal fruits like grapes or oranges can also be added.
