Easy and Delicious Rhubarb and Strawberry Salad
Simple, sweet and sour fruit salad with strawberries and rhubarb covered in honey syrup is ideal when you want to eat something sweet but you don't have time for long preparation. Really beautiful and delicious spring salad!
Ingredients
- 350 g strawberries
- 120 g rhubarb
- 3 tablespoon honey
- 4 tablespoon water
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest (grated)
- few fresh mint leaves
- 20 g almond flakes
- small piece fresh ginger
- 4-5 drops vanilla extract
Instructions
- Remove the leaves from the rhubarb, wash the stems, and cut them into pieces about 2 cm long. In a small pan add water, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and grated ginger, and bring to a boil.
- Add chopped rhubarb and let it cook for a few minutes. When it softens slightly, turn off the fire and let the rhubarb cool in the syrup, for about an hour or so.
- Wash and cut the strawberries and place them on a plate or in a bowl in which you will serve the salad. Add the rhubarb, pour the syrup over the fruit and garnish with fresh mint leaves and toasted almond flakes. Bon appetit! :)
Notes
- If you find the rhubarb still too tart, you can cook it a little bit longer in the syrup, but bear in mind that it will also be quite softer.
- Also, you can strain the syrup if you don't want to have tiny particles of lemon zest and ginger in your salad.
