Mauritian fruit and vegetable salads


Mauritius is not only an island with crystal-clear waters and white sandy beaches, but also an island of great fruit. Exotic fruit grows everywhere here, and so for us unusual fruit and vegetable salads are prepared here.

The first unusual salad I tasted was a mango and lychee salad. The fruit was cut into small cubes and complemented with green and red peppers and coriander. A magnificent combination of soft fruit and crunchy vegetables.

Another interesting vegetable salad is the Mauritian salad called “Satini Pomme d’Amour”. It consists of ingredients that are easily available even here – finely chopped tomatoes, onions, coriander, and salt, pepper, and oil are used for seasoning.

Bon appetit!

Accommodation in Mauritius
I wholeheartedly recommend the Seastar Hotel in Flic en Flac, just a short walk from a beautiful beach. The hotel is new, the breakfasts are great, and you almost always have an amazing hot tub on the roof terrace all to yourself! The last time I stayed here was in December 2022 and I will return again.
