This Fruit Kebab Recipe Is From Cook And Share Cookbook by Mary Berry
Ingredients Needed:
Fruit Kebab:
- 1 small, ripe pineapple
- 300g strawberries, hulled and halved if large
- 300g mango, peeled and cut into 2.5cm (1 in) cubes
Lemon Dip:
- 200g Greek yoghurt
- 2 tbsp lemon curd
- 2 tbsp chopped mint leaves
- A few sprigs of mint, leaves picked, for garnish
How To Make Fruit Kebab:
- Prepare the Pineapple: Cut off the top and base of the pineapple, then trim away the woody skin. Slice the pineapple into quarters lengthways and remove the core. Cut the flesh into 2.5cm (1 in) cubes.
- Assemble the Kebabs: Thread one pineapple cube onto a skewer, followed by one strawberry and a piece of mango. Repeat this until each skewer has two of each fruit.
- Make the Lemon Dip: In a small bowl, mix the Greek yoghurt, lemon curd, and chopped mint together until well combined.
- Serve: Arrange the fruit kebabs on a long platter, placing the lemon dip alongside. Garnish with picked mint leaves for an attractive finish.
Recipe Tips
- Choose Ripe Fruits: Select ripe pineapple, strawberries, and mango for the best flavor and sweetness. Overripe or underripe fruit can affect the taste of your kebabs.
- Soak Skewers: If you’re using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before threading on the fruit. This helps prevent them from burning on the grill.
- Mix Dip Well: Ensure you mix the Greek yoghurt, lemon curd, and mint thoroughly for a smooth and creamy dip. This makes the dip more flavorful.
- Keep Kebabs Cool: If you prepare the kebabs in advance, keep them in the fridge until you’re ready to serve. This keeps the fruit fresh and refreshing.
- Garnish Creatively: Use whole mint leaves to garnish your dish for a vibrant look. A pretty presentation makes the dish more appealing and festive.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers
Place leftover fruit kebabs in an airtight container and store them in the fridge. They will stay fresh for up to 2 days.
