Easter Fruit Tray
Easter bunny fruit platter served with a creamy, zesty lemon curd dip.
Servings: 8 people
Equipment
- small glass bowl about 8 cm (3 inches)
- chopping board or serving tray 35 cm radius (14 inches)
- handmixer
Ingredients
Fruit
- ½ watermelon
- 1 mango
- 300 grams grapes green
- 2 kiwis
- 500 grams strawberries
Dip
- 125 grams mascarpone
- 250 grams heavy cream
- 100 grams lemon curd
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
Instructions
Dip
- Whip the mascarpone for 60 seconds in a medium-sized bowl (I use a handmixer).
- Add the cream and whip until soft peaks form.
- Pour in the maple syrup and lemon curd and mix until just incorporated.
- Spoon the dip into a bowl.
Fruit
- Cut three slices of watermelon.
- Shape two of the slices into the bunny's feet. I cut the feet by hand, and use the first one as a guide to shape the next.
- Peel the kiwis and cut off both ends.
- Halve one kiwi and slice the other.
- Now, halve the strawberries and three of the grapes.
- Slice the mango to each side of the pit.
- Use the melon baller to cut out the mango balls (or cube the mango).
Assembly
- Place the dip in the center of the platter.
- Arrange the kiwi halves and the watermelon feet underneath the dip.
- Top each foot with a kiwi slice and the three grape halves.
- Add the remaining fruit. There's no right or wrong way here.
- Serve.
