Mandarin Salad With Kiwi Fruit
Ingredients:
  • 1 large lettuce, shredded
  • 350gm (appx 11 oz) fresh mandarins
  • 90gm (appx 3 oz) slivered almonds
  • 1 large brown or white onion, thinly sliced or finely chopped
  • 2 kiwi fruit, peeled and sliced

Method:
  • Wash the lettuce thoroughly, rinse and shake dry
  • Arrange the lettuce on 4 plates
  • Add the mandarin slices, kiwi fruit slices, onions and almonds
  • Garnish with your favourite salad dressing

Notes:
  • An orange balsamic dressing goes particularly well with this simple salad - but if you don't have any handy, any balsamic-based dressing will do
  • If you don't like almonds, other nuts that blend well in this salad include walnuts, pine nuts, finely sliced water chestnuts or peanuts
  • If you wish, you can expand beyond a basic lettuce to a general mix of salad greens. Consider adding spinach leaves, finely diced celery, thinly sliced carrot strips or other salad favourites
  • If you don't like onions, finely diced shallots or radishes also work well as substitutes. You can vary the amount of onion used to suit to your own taste
