Summer Fruit Salad with Rhubarb Compote

A delicious healthy bowl that tastes like summer, to enjoy on those warm sunny days when you don’t feel like having a big meal.

Ingredients

for the Rhubarb Compote

2 stalks of Rhubarb

1/2 cup Date Syrup

1/2 cup Orange Juice

1 tsp Vanilla Extract

for the fruit salad

half a Mango

half an Orange

200g Raspberries

a thick slice of Pineapple

400g Strawberries

half a Lime

For the Compote

Chop the rhubarb in chunks of roughly 3-4 cm and place into a small sauce pan. Add the date syrup and orange juice and bring to a boil. Then turn down the heat to a simmer and simmer until the rhubarb is soft and falling apart (5-10 minutes). Then add in the Vanilla Extract and let cool.

For the Fruit Salad

Now obviously you’re free to many any variation of this, but personally I thought it was a good combo. Chop up all fruit in small cubes and squeeze out the lime over it, giving it a good stir. This will help bring out the flavour and juices of the other fruits.

Ladle in a few tablespoons of the compote and enjoy!
