Ingredients

  • 2 blood oranges
  • 1 grapefruit
  • 0.5 pomegranate
  • 2 tbsp pistachios roughly chopped
  • mint

Instructions

  • Begin by carefully cutting off the top and bottom of the orange with a small, sharp knife.
  • Place the orange so that it is sitting with one flat bottom on the chopping board and the other facing up.
  • Start cutting away the pith and skin in a downward motion, following the curve of the orange. Try to avoid cutting away too much of the actual fruit.
  • If necessary, trim away any remaining pith.
  • Next slide the knife down between the membrane of a segment, then do the same on the following side to cut out the perfect wedge/segment.
  • Keep repeating this as you turn the orange round in your hand.
  • Repeat the above steps with the grapefruit.
  • Arrange the orange and grapefruit segments into your bowls or on to a plate.
  • Take the half of a pomegranate and hit with the back of a spoon until you've removed all of the seeds.
  • Sprinkle over the pomegranate seeds and the roughly chopped pistachios.
  • Add a few leaves of mint and serve.
