Fruit salad, with Clementines, Black Grapes, and mixed nuts

A simple fruit salad made with clementine segments, black grapes, and mixed nuts (in this case walnuts, cashew, almonds). Dressed in single cream (yoghurt will do as well). Fabulous and healthy dish which takes a couple of minutes to make. 

Strawberry and Blackberry Bourbon Surprise

Wow! Diced Scottish Strawberries and Blackberries soused for a couple of days in two shots of blended Bourbon whiskey, and two dessert spoonfuls of Demerara sugar. Kept in the fridge. Plus a handful of crushed almonds (I've made this dish before with almonds which were ground in a coffee grinder). Stirred occasionally.

Dress in a little black or white pepper before serving on a bed of Greek style yoghurt.

Any other whisky or whiskey will produce an excellent result. Utterly delicious! Strawberries Rombauer is often touted as the the apex of fruit salads (using Cointreau). It's good, but this has it beat.
