This refreshingly simple citrus salad features grapefruit and oranges topped with a tangy vinaigrette.You can stack the citrus slices with fresh mozzarella and basil on individual plates or in one big platter. It makes a beautiful presentation and can be eaten with salmon or to offset the richness of pasta.

Mango Pomelo Sago is a dessert that always reminds me of summer time in my hometown. It is such a sweet, tasty and fresh dish that brings great delight. It is like a cool and refreshing breeze that takes away all the stuffiness in summer. This piece is created for MICA Spring 2020 Illustrating the Edible class with Rebecca Bradley

Citrus fruits are not only delicious, healthy and refreshing they are also bright and colorful!

This design was an entry for a design challenge which inspired me to create a whole collection! It's a mix of pink grapefruit,white grapefruit,lime and lemon and the seeds are bursting out!

I created a set of grapefruit, lime and mint illustrations and created a pattern as well as hand lettered illustration.

When I was still living in Beirut, I regularly had lunch with my grandmother in her neighbourhood Thai restaurant. We never failed to order the pomelo salad for starters, a great favourite. Eventually the restaurant relocated and, for some reason, dropped the salad from their menu. My grandmother was still thinking longingly of it several years on, so I recreated it as far as I could remember, using ingredients easy to find locally. It was a hit!

Any that is left over will keep a few days while getting even tastier as it marinates further. Make sure to return to room temperature before eating, to fully enjoy the flavours.
