Dragon fruit mango orange smoothie



Have you ever had a smoothie made with dragon fruit? The flavour combination in this dragon fruit smoothie is incredible!

Let us discuss colour for a moment. Many people believe this colour is artificial because it is so vibrant, but it is the natural colour of dragon fruit, which is the major component in this smoothie.

Pitaya is another name for dragon fruit. There are four types of fruit: three with pink skin, one with white flesh, one with red flesh, and one with purple flesh. The fourth variant is differentiated by its yellow skin and white flesh. Like kiwifruit, they all feature tiny black seeds that are edible. I am most interested in trying the yellow-skinned scale with white fresh because it has a unique variety that I have never seen or tasted before.

Juice or smoothie can be made from dragon fruit. Just peel and cut the dragon fruit into pieces, then place it in a juice mixer with the proper amount of water or yogurt to make a tasty dragon fruit juice. It is good for breakfast or if you are hungry at work. It is an easy and healthy way.

What are the benefits of dragon fruit smoothies?

Dragon fruit is high in vitamin C, which helps with skin whitening, as well as water-soluble dietary fibre, which aids in weight loss by hydrating the intestines and acting as laxatives.

Dragon fruit has a higher iron concentration than other fruits. Iron is required for the formation of hemoglobin and other iron-containing molecules. Anemia can also be avoided by consuming the right quantity of iron. The dragon fruit is a soft and juicy fruit that helps restore iron and blood, giving your complexion a brighter and rosier appearance.

Is it necessary to dilute dragon fruit juice or a smoothie with water?

There are general instructions on the juicer, depending on the situation, on which way is the best for that machine. It is up to the individual's preference. No need to add water if the fruit already has a lot of juice. The texture is somewhat creamy. Add a little water if the smoothie is too thick for you. The consistency thickens as you add more of the ingredients. Water can be skipped when making a smoothie using oranges, and lemons.

Are smoothies made with dragon fruit healthy?

With no added sugar, this dragon fruit smoothie is filled with nutritious ingredients. It contains enough fibre and protein to keep you satisfied and full. It is a delicious, quick, and easy method to increase your fruit and vegetable intake.

What is a good match for dragon fruit juice?

Because dragon fruit has a sweet, delicate flavour, it works well when paired with yoghurt, mango, lemon juice, and to create a tropical flavour.


INGREDIENT

1  medium-size red flesh dragon fruit 

1 medium size mango

1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice

½ cup plain yogurt

Dong Po Rou （东坡肉）

Dong Po Rou （东坡肉） – wine braised pork belly. It’s rich and savoury, tender that melts into your mouth. Traditionally, the pork belly is pan-fried before being braised or stewed for one to one and a half hours on low heat. Some of the recipes even call for steaming for an additional half an hour after stewing. It is very time-consuming. But as you are aware, I enjoy making recipes simpler without compromising the taste. You, too, I'm sure. Therefore, I skipped the pan-frying step and proceeded directly to braising the pork after blanching it, and then continued to cook with a pressure cooker. Don't worry; the dish's flavour remains unaffected. I'm hoping this simplified method may come in handy for your regular cooking. Trim off the edges of the pork and cut it into 3x3 cubes. Tie cooking twine around each cube. This will assist the cubes in keeping their form while cooking. If the pork that you bought is at the mid portion of the belly is ideal, there is a nice bala...

Canned braised pork belly (罐头扣肉）

  A must-have dish for the Lunar New Year is steamed braised pork ( 扣肉 ). Some people enjoy making braised pork with yam, while others prefer to use preserved veggies. The key to making braised pork is to boil the meat first, then deep-fry it, and finally steam it. The sauces are the key to enhancing the flavour of the braised pork with either yam or preserved veggies. Of course, choosing pork that is half-fat and lean pork belly tastes the best is also crucial.   You can choose how thinly you want the pork slices. I sliced my pork to a thinness of 10 to 15 mm thinness.  Another crucial tip is to just use wine and no water when preparing the braised pork. I'm using Shaoxing wine, and it's been proven that the more wine you use, the tastier and more fragrant the meat will be and that the meat will remain fragrant after stewing. As I mentioned, this braised pork needs to boil first, then be deep-fried.  For those who find frying meat is very troublesome , you can w...

Ginkgo Bean Curd and Barley Sugar dessert (白果腐竹薏米糖水)

Do you miss this delicacy of Ginkgo Bean Curd and Barley Sugar dessert? When did you most recently enjoy or make it? Ginkgo, commonly known as ginkgo. It is very popular when used to cook bean curd sheets. I went to a dessert house two days ago. The waitress was serving this dessert to a young lady who was sitting next to me. I overheard that lady comment about that dessert is different from other dessert houses. So, I give it a go. I am not sure how it was different from other dessert houses. But it is different from what I had before. It is creamy, smooth, and rich in flavour. So, I am going to copycat this, and my family loves it so much. Especially youngsters who do not like any small chunks to chew on with liquid dessert. This dessert can be cooked on the stove or pressure cooker. There's a catch, though: Yuba sheets or bean curd sheet, also known as Fu Chuk, come in a variety of forms.   If you opt for making this dessert over a stove, need to choose the kind that disso...
