Basil and lime lend this colorful fruit salad a savory undertone. To make ahead, prepare the infused syrup and clean and chop the fruit; refrigerate separately. Toss the fruit and syrup together just before it's time to serve. Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup water |
1/2 cup packed basil leaves |
1 tablespoon grated lime rind |
4 cups cubed pineapple (about 1 medium) |
3 cups quartered strawberries (about 1 pound) |
2 cups cubed peeled mango (about 2 large) |
4 kiwifruit, peeled, halved lengthwise, and sliced (about 1 1/2 cups) |
Directions:
1. Combine sugar and 1/2 cup water in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook 1 minute or until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat; stir in basil and rind. Cool. Strain sugar mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl; discard solids.
2. Combine pineapple and remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Drizzle with sugar mixture; toss gently.
