A dessert from sweet dried fruit that contains no fat and very few calories, yet is rich in vitamin C.

Ingredients

  • 125 g small organic orange (1 small organic orange)
  • 175 g small pink grapefruit (organic quality, 1 small pink grapefruit)
  • 1 dried date

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Rinse the orange and grapefruit under hot water and pat dry.

  2. 2.

    Using a vegetable peeler, remove a strip of peel about 3 cm long from each fruit, cutting it into thin crosswise strips.

  3. 3.

    Peel the fruits thick enough to also remove the white pith.

  4. 4.

    Separate the fruit segments between the membranes; work over a bowl to catch the juice.

  5. 5.

    Slice the date lengthwise in half, remove the pit if necessary, and cut the flesh into very fine strips.

  6. 6.

    Combine the date strips with the fruit segments, half of the peel strips, and the collected juice in a bowl. Let stand for 10 minutes. Plate on a dish and sprinkle with the remaining peel strips.
