Fruit Salad
Past few weeks my husband's colleagues was organizing a pot luck and since I am pregnant, I decided to made them a fruit salad. Actually, my husband was telling me that he will just go and buy a roast duck. Since this roast duck shop is famous in Puchong. I was telling him its ok, I can still make the salad. At least salad is not consider as a main dish. =)) Well, about the roast duck, it was really very good. What the shop did was, they will put the duck into the oven again to kinda heat it up again, so it will be hot and the skin will be crispy. Actually, I just tried a small piece. It was not bad at all. The most important thing is, it doesnt have the stinky smell of the duckie... which is good. Everyone loves it.
Of course, I did my salad as well. And yup, as I have expected, the salad is the only food that is not the main dish on the table. Haha... We have a total of 22 types of dishes. Imagine that. =)) Anyway, everyone enjoyed the salad a lot. Especially the dressing that I made. Yup, my special mix. Hehe... Well, here is the recipe. Hope you will like it... Sorry, this one I dont have a picture to show you... =P
Ingredients :-
2 Lettuces (wash and cut into smaller pieces)
2 Grapefruits (remove the flesh gently)
1 box Honey cherry tomatoes
3 Red Apples (remove skin and cut into 3-4cm stick)
Grapes (preferable seedless)
Olive oil (optional - If you like a bit of the smell and taste in your salad, mix the olive oil with the lettuce only)
Salad dressing ingredients :-
1 bottle of lady's choice Thousand Island dressing
3 tbs of lady's choice Fruit Salad dressing (You can replace this with Honey mustard blended with some pineapples (not too much as we only need a bit of the taste) - should gives you the similar taste)
1 orange (squeeze out the juice)
1 lemon (squeeze out the juice)
3 carrots (blended not too fine - If you like more carrot taste, you may add more)
Methods :-
1. Mix all the ingredients and refrigerate for at least 1/2 hour (for cooling effect).
2. Mix all the ingredients for the salad dressing in a separate mixing bowl and refrigerate for at least 1/2 hour also (for cooling effect).
3. Pour in the salad dressing upon serving the salad.
Note: In case you prefer to put the carrots into the ingredients instead of the dressing, cut the carrot into matchstick size and mix it with the ingredients.
Ok, so this is my special fruit salad. Try it and let me know what you think of it. Enjoy....
