Pineapple Sunflower Prawn Fritters Salad Recipe

This is the first time I tried roasting pineapple and I was not really sure how the taste would turn out to be. I was quite surprised to discover that roasted pineapple has nice aroma, is sweet and juicy as well. For a little crunchy texture, I added prawn fritters to the pineapple salad. Then I used some carrots as branches and lettuce as leafs for my pineapples sunflowers theme salad. I used a blue and white plate to give the dish a little contrast. After adding all the final touches to my Pineapple Sunflower Prawn Fritters Salad, it looked like an oil painting! LOL!
Ingredients
Pineapples, 5 pcs, cut into round shapes (Ray Flower)
Carrots, 1 pc, cut into strips and five into round shapes to decorate the flower (Disc Flower)
Lettuce, 4 to 5 small leaves
Sugar, 1 table spoons
 Olive oil, 2 table spoons
Pepper, a dash
Thousand Island Salad Dressing, 3 table spoons
Prawn Fritters, you can use this link to my prawns fritters recipe

Sprinkle the sugar on the pineapples. Add a dash of pepper and olive oil. Heat up oven to 200 Dec C and roast pineapple for around 5 minutes or until the sugar caramelised. Cut the pineapple into bite sizes and arrange them back into the round shape on a plate. Decorate the plate with the carrot, lettuce and prawn fritters as the flower bed. Put the thousand island salad dressing on the pineapple flowers and the whole dish.

Most schools in New Zealand are very old, this school must have had a new coat of paint.

Some places, the paua aka abalone have been harvested until no more.
