Spicy Star Fruit Salad With Mint Recipes

Steps:

• For the spicy syrup: Put the sugar, jalapeno and 1/2 cup water in a pan and bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Reduce the heat and simmer until the liquid has reduced to a thin syrup, about 10 minutes. Remove the jalapeno. Let the syrup cool, then add the lime zest and juice.
• For the cowboy fruit salad: Add the strawberries, melon and green and red grapes to a bowl, pour over all of the syrup and toss. Sprinkle over the mint leaves.

Steps:

• Peel and dice the mango or papaya, and put in a medium bowl. Trim the strawberries' stems and half or quarter, if large. Add to the bowl of fruit. Peel and dice the kiwi, add to bowl. Peel and slice the bananas, add to bowl.
• Cut the top and bottom off the oranges just deep enough to expose the inner fruit. Following the curve of the fruit cut the skin and pith off the orange in panels. Holding the orange over the bowl cut between the membranes to free the citrus segments. Let them fall into the bowl as they are cut free. By hand, squeeze all the juice from the remaining membrane over the fruit, then discard. Repeat with the other orange.
• Lightly stir the honey and Grand Marnier, if using, into the fruit. Strip the mint leaves off the stem, tear, or chop into smaller pieces, and stir into the fruit salad. Add the berries and set aside for 10 minutes or up to 2 hours.
• Serve.
