Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 whole Strawberries
- 2 cups Pineapple chunks
- 3 whole Kiwi
- 20 whole Grapes
- 1 cup Mango chunks
- 10 pieces Wooden skewers
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Shredded coconut (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Wash all the fruits thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean cloth or paper towel.
Hull the strawberries, peel and cut the kiwi into thick slices, and chop the pineapple and mango into bite-sized chunks.
Thread the fruit pieces onto wooden skewers, alternating the fruits for a colorful presentation. For example, add a strawberry, followed by a pineapple chunk, a slice of kiwi, a grape, and a mango chunk. Repeat until the skewer is full, leaving a bit of space at each end for handling. Repeat until all the fruit is used or all the skewers are filled.
In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, honey, and lime juice until smooth and well combined. This will form the coconut dressing.
Arrange the fruit kabobs on a serving plate and drizzle the coconut dressing over the top using a spoon or small pitcher.
Sprinkle with shredded coconut for garnish, if desired.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 hour before serving to keep the fruits fresh and chilled.
