Fresh Fruits

Those that available fresh--pineapples, mangoes, papayas, oranges and bananas--can
be served alone, whole or sliced, or in various combinations. A compote or fruit salad could be
made with chunks or all or any of the above-named fruits, with the addition of coconut slivers,
dates, and a small amount of lime juice or other fruit juice, and a small amount of homey, if
sweetening is desired.
