Hawaiian Fruit and Coconut Salad
by Tarla Dalal
It is a brilliant idea to combine tender coconut meat cubes with juicy fruits, because their flavours and textures are so contrasting that they bring out the best qualities of each other!
Potato cubes and cheese cubes add to this fine balance, while a luscious dressing of curds and cream flavoured with lemon and mustard make the Hawaiian Fruit and Coconut Salad a perfect treat for the palate!
This salad is delicious served with pasta, or serve with soup and bread for lunch.
