Kitchen Tools

  • chef’s knife

Preparation

Start by dicing the vibrant dragon fruit into small cubes and crumble the tangy goat cheese. In a mixing bowl, combine the dragon fruit, goat cheese, and chopped pistachios. Toss gently to mix the flavors together.

Next, tear the fresh mint leaves and add them to the bowl. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the honey and balsamic vinegar to create a sweet and tangy dressing. Pour the dressing over the dragon fruit mixture and toss everything until evenly coated.

Serving

Transfer the dressed dragon fruit salad to individual serving plates, ensuring each portion has a good balance of all the ingredients. Garnish with a few extra torn mint leaves and a sprinkle of chopped pistachios for an extra burst of flavor and crunch.

Tips

For an extra burst of freshness, refrigerate the salad for 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. The cold temperature will also enhance the overall experience of this unique dish.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 400g, with 4 servings at 100g each. One serving is estimated to be around 150 calories.
