Fruit, < 30 Mins, Easy
๐ Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup sugar
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup heavy cream
๐ฝ๏ธ Instructions:
-
Beat Eggs: In a bowl, beat the eggs until smooth and frothy.
-
Add Sugar: Gradually add in the sugar, continuing to beat until well combined.
-
Lemon Juice and Salt: Stir in the juice of one lemon and a pinch of salt, ensuring everything is mixed thoroughly.
-
Cook in Double Boiler: Transfer the mixture into the top of a double boiler. Cook over simmering water, stirring constantly, until the dressing thickens. This should take about 10 minutes.
-
Cool Down: Remove the dressing from heat and allow it to cool to room temperature. It should thicken further as it cools.
-
Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
-
Combine Ingredients: Once the egg mixture has cooled, gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon mixture. This will create a creamy and luscious dressing.
-
Prepare Fruit: Chop up an assortment of fruits into bite-sized pieces. Some great options include apples (with skin on), bananas, well-drained pineapple chunks, oranges, walnuts, and maraschino cherries.
-
Assemble the Salad: Place the cut-up fruits in a large serving bowl.
-
Pour Dressing: Drizzle the prepared Fruit Salad Dressing over the fruits in the bowl. Use a spatula to gently toss the fruits, ensuring they are evenly coated with the dressing.
-
Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid, then refrigerate the fruit salad for several hours or overnight. Chilling allows the flavors to meld together, creating a more delicious salad.
๐ฅ Serving Tips:
- Serve the Fruit Salad chilled, garnished with additional fresh fruits or mint leaves.
- This dressing also works wonderfully with fruit salads served in hollowed-out melon bowls for a beautiful presentation.
- Enjoy this refreshing salad as a side dish, dessert, or a light and healthy snack any time of the day!
