Thai fruit salad (Yum-pol-la-mai )

Thai fruit salad offers an addictive combination of sweet, savoury and salty flavours. Marni Xuto’s yum-pol-la-mai includes strawberries, grapes, mango and apples in an umami-rich lime and chilli dressing.

Marni says: “This dish is a kiss of sunshine. It’s vibrant, hopeful and full of surprises – who knew fruit and fish sauce could be such good friends? If you’re familiar with green papaya salad, this is its delightful sister.”

Growing up in Bangkok, Marni’s passion for cooking started at a young age. She’s lived in the UK for 20 years and is a recipe developer and blogger. Follow Marni on Instagram.

  1. Easy swaps The dressing works well with pretty much any fruit – so mix it up and use whatever is in season.
