We Love Colour in Our Salad Recipes and Understand How It Can Tie into The Theme of a Dinner. This Red Dragon Fruit Salad Is Delicious and Eye Catching, Naturally Dyed Red in The Juices of The Dragon Fruit.
Cut the red dragon fruit horizontally from the crown of the fruit to the end. Cut off the head and then peel back the outer skin. Cut the fruit into small cubes.
Cut the pomegranate in half. Stretch the flesh to loosen it up. Over a bowl, place the pomegranate face down on your palm. With a wooden spoon, knock the back of the pomegranate and the seeds will fall through your fingers into the bowl.
Cut the plums around the stone. Lay them flat and slice into thin slices. Discard the stone.
Place all these ingredients into a large mixing bowl.
Dressing
Cut the passionfruit into half. Remove the flesh into a small mixing bowl.
Mix ½ tsp of allspice into the passionfruit.
Assembly
Pour the passionfruit mix over the top of the fruit salad mix.
If you would like the fruit salad to take on a deep red colour, leave it for a few hours so that the juices of the red dragon fruit can do its work.
Notes
Usually I am able to give you substitutes for ingredients, but I have to be honest and say that in this instance, the red dragon fruit and pomegranate are simply not replaceable. I guess that’s what makes it so unique!
And as for the passionfruit, it highlights the tartness of this salad. If they are not in season, go for the can variety. Not a perfect solution but better than none.
