Equipment
- Satay sticks
Ingredients
Glaze
- 200 g sugar
- 60 ml water
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar or regular vinegar
Fruit
- 8 grapes
- 8 strawberries
- 8 slices kiwi
- 8 cubes apple
- 8 cubes melon
- dish water to let the glaze harden
- ice cube to make ice water
Optional
- 4 tbsp chocolate sauce for over the skewers
Instructions
Preparation
- Remove 8 grapes from the bunch. Clean 8 strawberries. Cut 8 slices kiwi, 8 cubes apple, and 8 cubes melon. Prepare a dish water and add plenty of ice cube.
- Thread each 8 grapes, 8 strawberries, 8 slices kiwi, 8 cubes apple, and 8 cubes melon onto a skewer. Make sure the fruit is thoroughly dry so that the glaze will stick better later.
Cooking
- For the glaze, heat 200 g sugar, 60 ml water, and 1 tbsp rice vinegar in a saucepan. Stir until the sugar dissolves, then let it boil without stirring until the mixture is light golden.
- Remove the pan from the heat and quickly dip the skewers in the glaze, or carefully pour it over them. Let the excess glaze drip off and immediately dip the skewers into ice water so that the glaze becomes crisp.
To serve
- Serve the glazed fruit skewers immediately. For an extra festive touch, you can drizzle some 4 tbsp chocolate sauce over them just before serving.
Notes
Make sure the fruit is completely dry before dipping it into the glaze. This keeps the coating beautiful and crispy and prevents the glazed fruit skewers from falling apart. Feel free to vary the fruit to taste or season.
