Spiced fruit salad is a refreshing and flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover fruit, and it is also a healthy and delicious snack or dessert. There are many different ways to make spiced fruit salad, but the most common ingredients include fruits such as apples, oranges, grapes, and strawberries. The fruit is typically tossed with a dressing made with spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Spiced fruit salad can be served on its own or with yogurt, granola, or ice cream.

Steps:
- For the spicy roasted pecans: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment and coat with cooking spray.
- In a small bowl, combine the sugar, cinnamon, salt, cayenne, ginger and egg white. Whisk until foamy. Fold in the pecans until fully incorporated.
- Transfer the pecans to the prepared baking sheet in an even layer. Bake until fragrant, about 20 minutes. Let cool.
- For the fruit salad: Cut a slit into the habanero. Combine the honey and orange juice in a small saucepot and add the habanero and cinnamon. Heat until just simmering, about 40 seconds. Let stand for 10 minutes, then remove the habanero.
- To serve: Toss the cantaloupe, grapes, kiwis and apples with the honey syrup, then coarsely crumble the pecans on top.
SPICED DRIED FRUIT SALAD
When served warm this is a great fruit dessert for those cold winter nights. I serve it with good quality Greek yoghurt. Or, serve it chilled with icecream. Or with pancakes for breakfast. This is a favourite with my family. It can be varied infinitely too - so don't worry if you don't have all the ingredients. This comes from Stephanie Alexander's Cooks Companion.

Steps:
- Put all the dried fruit plus the cinnamon, cloves, honey, saffron, vanilla and lemon zest into a sauce pan. Add cold water to just barely cover the fruit.
- Place on stove on a low-medium heat and slowly bring to simmering point. Cook for 15 minutes, gently stirring once during this time. Remove from heat.
- Cool to desired serving temperature - remove cinnamon & cloves (if you can find them). Just before serving stir in the almonds, pistachios and a few drops of orange flower water (or to taste).
- Note: if you prefer you can place the cinnamon & cloves into a muslin bag to make removal easier.
