SLC25-W6 // "Fruit Salad"
Greetings everyone!
Welcome to my week6 practical post on salad challenge, the past few weeks have been about learning of culinary knowledge on different types of salads it was nice exploring and coming back a whole lot of knowledge about salads i appreciate our dear teachers @dasudi and @lirvic for taking out their precious time to educate us.
1 - Make a "Fruit Salad": Contain at least three different fruits of your choice and a dressing. (Detail utensils, ingredients, and step-by-step instructions.)
Ingredients:
Base ingredients
• cucumber 100grm
• two finger of banana
• two oranges
• peanut 25grm
• watermelon 60grm
For the dressing
• salad cream
• 25ml of condensed milk
Step1
I washed the cucumber and peeled the orange also peeled the two fingers of banana and cut them in a round shape.
Step2
Step3
After i diced all the four types of fruit i assemble them and put them in a large bowl added the peanut then set aside while I add the whipped cream and condensed milk and whisked till it becomes creamy solid.
Step4
I added the cream to the bowl of fruit and milk till it marinate well the i refrigerated for few minutes the fruit absorbed the mix cream and made it look shiny i brought it out and put then in a glass cup layer by layer with a little cream decoration.
2 - What was your favorite fruit you included in the salad? Did you like the resulting flavor combination? What health benefits do you think your fruit salad provides?
My favourite fruit among other fruit is orange i love the sweet taste and flavor it gave in my salads also orange has a great health benefits which makes it a great fruit to consume i have always known orange as a potential source of vitamin c and fiber which help in digestion and also improve heart health then i recently researched and found out that orange also play a vital role in cancer prevention, personally i love orange not just for the taste but weight management.
3 - Are the ingredients you used for your fruit salad available in your area? Please indicate the Steem prices of the three main fruits you added to your recipe.
Items | Naira | Steem |
---|---|---|
Cucumber | 500 | 2.5 |
Orange | 500 | 2.5 |
Watermelon | 100 | 5 |
Total | 200 | 10 |
Yes the fruit i use is available but it expensive due to season as some of the fruit like orange are out of season and also not easy to find a ripes one also watermelon are planted in the northern part of Nigeria shipping it down to the south cost alot which make the fruit scarce and expensive another thing is buying in kilo which is more than the actual quantity required but having to take the quantity needed is another factor that makes it expensive,but in all you know sacrifices must be made to obtain a good thing it was worth the prize.
4 - Choose a Steemi friend to share this fruit salad with virtually. Tell us why you chose that user to share your fruit salad with.

La ensalada se ve muy llamativa y deliciosa.
La naranja le aporta ese sabor ácido que hace un buen contraste con el aderezo
