Prep 15 mins

SERVES 6

● 2 ruby grapefruit

● 2 large oranges

● 2 clementine­s or satsumas

● 12 physalis berries

● Seeds of ½ pomegranat­e

● Zest of 1 lime

● 1 tbsp chopped fresh mint leaves

● 1 tbsp caster sugar

PEEL the grapefruit, oranges and clementine­s, removing as much of the white pith as you can. For the grapefruit and oranges, you may find it easier to use a knife to slice the top and bottom off, then cut away the rest of the peel. Slice the fruit crossways, removing any seeds. Arrange the slices of fruit on a platter. Reserve four of the physalis berries, then remove the others from their papery pods, cut the berries into halves and scatter them over the other fruit. Sprinkle over the pomegranat­e seeds. Using a pestle and mortar, crush the lime zest, mint leaves and caster sugar together until you have a rough paste. Add one or two tablespoon­s of water, mixing until you have a drizzling consistenc­y. Garnish the fruit salad with the reserved physalis berries and serve with the lime and mint dressing.
