Passionate citrus cup

This simple citrusy concoction is quick to make and can be used as either a starter or as a light, refreshing desert.

Make sure your passion fruit are ripe and wrinkly otherwise you may not have sufficient juice and the juice will be sharp. Serves 4.

Ingredients

• 3 large oranges (peeled and segmented)
• 3 ruby grapefruit (peeled and segmented)
• For the dressing:
• 4 large ripe passion fruit*
• ½ tsp peeled and finely grated ginger
• 3 tbsp organic sunflower oil
• Pinch caster sugar
• 6 mint leaves, sliced into fine ribbons (to garnish)

Method

1 Share out the fruit into four dishes or glasses.

2 Remove the pips by straining the passion fruit through a sieve to leave approximately 1 ½ tbsp juice. Mix this well with the other dressing ingredients and drizzle over the fruit. Garnish with mint ribbons.
