Tapioca and coconut Fruit salad

Ayurveda suggest not to combine sweet fruits with sour fruits for better digestion. The secret of a good fruit salad is to select fresh organic fruits that are well mature.  I prefer to eat fruits by themselves in the morning or as a snack. However from time to time I add fruits to green salads or make them as fresh desert for hot summer days. To avoid the gas forming of fruits add a pinch of chilli, mint or ginger to your salad.- serve 4 good for pitta, and kaphas
