Marinated Melon with Honey Ginger Cream
|
A delightful treat and a lovely way to use this luscious fruit.
1 ripe melon, peeled, cut into chunks or balls (use any sweet melon variety)
2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
1/2 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 cup low-fat sour cream or very fresh plain yoghurt
3 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons finely chopped crystallized ginger
Garnish: fresh mint leaves or lemon basil
Place melon chunks and strawberries in a large shallow dish. Combine orange
juice and brown sugar and pour over the fruit. Marinate the fruit mixture in the
refrigerator for 2 hours. Combine sour cream (or yoghurt), honey and ginger in a
small bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Spoon fruit into individual
bowls or a large serving bowl and top with sour cream mixture. Garnish with
fresh mint leaves or lemon basil.
