How to Make East Meets West Rojak Fruit Salad

  1. Soak thinly sliced apples (2 medium) in a solution of 1 tbsp lime juice and 1 cup water for 5 minutes to prevent browning.
  2. Layer thinly sliced fruits in a shallow glass dish or individual bowls. Suggested fruits: 1 cup mango chunks, 1 cup pineapple chunks, 1/2 cup green grapes, 1/2 cup strawberries, and the soaked apple slices.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Toast 1/4 cup peanuts and 1 tbsp sesame seeds on a baking sheet for 10 minutes, stirring halfway through, until fragrant and lightly golden.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients: 2 tbsp lime juice, 1 tbsp brown sugar, 1 tbsp fish sauce, 1/2 tsp chili flakes (or to taste), and 2 tbsp water until well combined.
  6. Stir in 1 tbsp of the toasted sesame seeds and half of the toasted peanuts into the dressing.
  7. Serve the fruit salad in a bowl. Drizzle the dressing generously over the salad.
  8. Garnish with the remaining toasted peanuts for guests to sprinkle on as desired.
