Servings: 4
Equipment
- Mixing bowls.
- Spoon
Ingredients
- 2 cups cucumber cubed.
- 1 pint cherry and/ or plum tomatoes
- 1 apple I used Granny Smith.
- 1 cup pineapple cubed.
- 2 teaspoons chilli sauce see the note.
- 2 teaspoons tomato ketchup.
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar.
- Lime juice from ½ lime.
- A pinch of salt.
Instructions
- Cut tomatoes in halves.
- Dice the cucumber.
- Peel, core and cut the apples in chunks.
- Cut the pineapples into small pieces.
- Put all the fruits and cucumber in a mixing bowl.
- In a small bowl, mix the chilli sauce, tomato ketchup, sugar, salt and lime juice until the sugar dissolves. Try to taste. Your dressing should taste refreshingly tangy, slightly spicy, a little bit salty and sweet.
- Pour the dressing in the salad mix. Stir gently and thoroughly.
- Enjoy.
Notes
- You can use any type of tomato you like. Though I use cherry tomatoes and plum tomatoes. If you prefer big salad tomatoes, make sure you deseed them before you cut in small pieces.
- Preferably you use Indonesian chili sauce. But Thai sriracha sauce is a good substitute.
