Tropical Fruit salad with Ginger and Lemongrass

This is my favorite fruit salad and I have been doing it for many years specially in the Summer.

Usually I make a bigger portion so we can keep it in the fridge at least for one more day, it is even better when chilled.

60grs of sugar

1 piece of fresh ginger (1cm)

1 stick of lemongrass

2 passion fruit

1 papaya

1 melon

2 mango's

1 small pineapple

12 fresh lychee's

5 leaves of mint

Place the suger, the ginger and the lemongrass in a sauce pan.

Add 125 ml of water and bring it to boil for 10 minutes. Let it cool , remove the ginger and the lemongrass and add the passion fruit pulp.

Clean the fruit from all skin and seads anc cut in medium pieces.

Place all fruit in a serving dish and add the sirup.

To finish put the mint leaves.
