Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams fresh strawberries
- 3 pieces ripe kiwi fruit
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 5 leaves fresh mint leaves
- 2 tablespoons granola (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cold running water and pat them dry with a clean towel.
Remove the stems from the strawberries and slice them into quarters or bite-sized pieces.
Peel the kiwi fruit by cutting off the ends and sliding a spoon between the skin and flesh. Slice the peeled kiwi into thin rounds or small chunks.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and fresh lime juice to create a light dressing.
Place the strawberries and kiwi in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the honey-lime dressing over the fruit and gently toss to combine, being careful not to mash the fruit.
Chop the fresh mint leaves finely and sprinkle them over the salad for a burst of freshness.
Transfer the fruit salad to individual serving bowls or a platter. Optionally, sprinkle granola on top for added crunch and texture.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 hour to let the flavors meld before serving. Enjoy chilled.
