Ingredients

1 cup butternut (raw & peeled)
1 can passion fruit (small)
1 can pineapple (pieces)

Instructions

  1. Grate 1 cup raw, peeled butternut and place it into a mixing bowl.
  2. Drain 1 can pineapple pieces and add them to the butternut.
  3. Pour in 1 small can of passion fruit, including the juice, and mix gently until well combined.
  4. Cover and refrigerate overnight to allow the flavours to blend.
  5. Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish.

Hints & Tips

  • Choose sweet, ripe butternut – A naturally sweet butternut will balance perfectly with the tropical fruit flavours.
  • Drain pineapple well – This prevents the salad from becoming too watery.
  • Make it ahead – Chilling overnight really enhances the flavour and softens the butternut slightly.
