Fruit Salad

Fresh fruit salad with mint, honey and lime juice is  perfect to have as a dessert or for breakfast as a healthy start for the day. You can use any kind of fruits you have or like. I had some fresh strawberries and blue berries at home so bought some more colorful fruits and added to this yummy and fresh salad.  This dish goes as my 3rd dish for BM 62 under the theme " Salads".




Ingredients:

Fresh Strawberries 10
Fresh Blueberries 1/2 cup
Pineapple chunks 1/2 cup
Kiwi 2
Honey 1 spoon
Pomegranate seeds 1/2 cup
Lime juice 3 spoons
Orange 1
Mint leaves 4 ( optional)


Preparation:


Chop or cut the fruits in what ever shape or size you want.
In a mixing bowl add honey,  lime juice and fresh orange juice taken from  the orange.
Mix well and add all the chopped fruits.



Mix them well and refrigerate for about 1 hour or till you serve.
Add chopped mint leaves for extra flavor, I skipped this as my kids are not fond of it.
Can be served with pudding or ice cream or as it is.

Kaju Katli / Kaju Burfi

Kaju Katli also known as Kaju burfi is an Indian dessert made of Cashew nuts and sugar. Kaju Katli  has been in my to do list for a quite some time. Finally I made it for this Diwali. Diamond sweet is one of   my son's favorite sweet, yes " Diamond Sweet " that is what he calls it. The texture was't that smooth that we get in market but the taste was awesome.  Typically, Cashew nuts are soaked in water overnight then ground it into paste and added to sugar syrup to make a smooth dough. Few people make it in different way, make cashew nuts powder and add to sugar syrup. Either ways you make the taste and texture matters.
