Directions: |
Directions:Peel and coarsely cut the papaya into1/2 inch chunks.
Use a mango slicer to split and de-seed the mango. Separate the mango fruit from the skin and cut into 1/2 inch chunks.
Wash and de-core the strawberries. Cut into pieces to match the papaya size.
Wash the blueberries.
Open the pomegranate and separate the seeds. Be careful - pomegranate juice can stain your clothing.
Cut off the top of a pineapple, core the center and remove the fruit. A pineapple device does this very easily and preserves the pineapple as a serving container for the fruit salad. Without one, cut open the pineapple with a knife and remove the rind. Cut the pineapple also into 1/2 inch chunks.
Peel the kiwi fruit and slice into 1/8 inch slabs.
Cut the dragonfruit in half lengthwise. Remove the fruit with a tablespoon and cut into 1/2 inch chunks while keeping the halves of the dragonfruit as serving bowls.
Split the watermelon, cut the fruit into 1/2 inch chunks while preserving the rind as serving bowls.
Combine all ingredients into a large bowl including the flaked coconut. Mix carefully but don't damage the fruit. Use the pineapple, watermelon and dragonfruit rinds for serving the fruit mixture.
Option: add some banana or coconut liqueur to the fruit mixture for an extra kick. |
