Name: Lychee, Lime & Ginger Salad
Yield: Makes 4 to 6 (dessert) servings,
Ingredients: 2 pounds of lychees in the shell (or canned lychees); 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice; 2 tablespoons diced, candied ginger (from about a one-half ounce chunk of candied ginger)

Trying to take a lychee off its pit is nearly impossible. I leave them on their pits which does nothing to detract from the quality of this salad! You can use canned lychees, which are surprisingly delicious.
