Tomtoes are a fruit but not really suitable for Fruit Salad

Can not believe the posh chef was here and left without giving him a recipe.  Harsh imo

I'm no posh chef, but surely recipe is:

1 chop up some fruit
2 throw in a bowl (maybe add some juice)
3 Serve

Look out Gordon Ramsey!

Claire's correct.

Make a stock syrup: Water, Sugar (equal quantities) and Lemon juice - heated till sugar is dissolved.

Use 3 Apples(sliced),3 Pears(Sliced),3 Oranges (Segments), 1/4 of a bunch of each of Black and White seedless Grapes (halved) as a base.

Add 1 punnet of each soft fruits (strawberries, cherries and Blueberries) and 2 sliced bananas closer to service.

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit - wisdom is knowing not to put them in a fruit salad.
