Grilled Fruity Kebab Sticks With Honey And Cardamom

A healthy fruity dessert with almost no fat and relatively little sugar added. It draws its main sweetness from the fruits and honey.

Ingredients

  • ¼ small pineapple, cut into bite-size pieces, or a small can of pineapple pieces
  • 1 peach, cut into pieces
  • 1 banana, sliced thickly
  • 16 strawberries
For the syrup:
  • 2 tbsp. honey
  • 20 g good margarine, melted
  • ½ tsp. ground cardamom
  • 1 tbsp. rum or amaretto (optional)
  • 1 tbsp. brown sugar
Instructions
  • Place 8 wooden sticks for 20 minutes into cold water so that they won’t burn under the grill.
  • In the meantime, cut the fruit and prepare the syrup by simply mixing all ingredients in a bowl.
  • Put the fruits by turns onto the sticks and dab them with the syrup.
  • Place the kebabs into a lightly greased ovenproof dish and grill them for about 5 minutes. After half of the time, dab them with syrup again.
  • Serve the fruity kebabs with the remaining syrup and yoghurt.
Serves 4.

Tip
If you have a bit more time, you can pour the syrup over the kebabs, cover them and marinate them for about an hour to enhance the flavor. You can also serve 500 g low-fat yoghurt with the kebabs (125 g per person). Choose plain yoghurt or a fruity version, just as you like, but make sure it’s unsweetened.
