Method
- This delicious breakfast is super simple, but it’s beautiful, tasty, and the action of bruising and grating brings out all the natural sugars in the fruit, creating a wonderful juicy dressing.
- Place a small frying pan on a medium heat and add the sesame seeds.
- Toast for a couple of minutes, or until golden, gently jiggling the pan for even cooking.
- Carefully tip the seeds into a small microwave safe bowl.
- Mix in the honey.
- Warm the mixture through in the microwave (800W) for 20 seconds, then carefully place to one side.
- Pull the stalks off the pear and apple and hull the strawberries.
- On a chopping board, use a knife to carefully cut all the way around the nectarine in a circle.
- Hold the nectarine in your hands and twist until you can pull the two halves apart.
- Pull out and discard the stone from the centre – you can use a teaspoon to help you scoop it out.
- Peel the banana.
- Place a box grater on a plate, then on the coarse side, carefully grate all of the fruit, piece by piece, in long strokes.
- Carefully lift off the grater, leaving a lovely pile of grated fruit on the plate.
- Carefully cut the orange in half and squeeze the juice over the fruit, using your hand to catch any pips.
- Drizzle the fruit with 2 tablespoons of the sesame honey (keep the rest for another day).
- Pick and roughly chop the mint leaves, discarding the stalks, then sprinkle over the fruit.
- Divide between bowls and serve with a dollop of natural yoghurt, if you like.
