Directions
- Phyllis Glazer writes: "When choosing carambola ["star fruit"], look for those with wide ribs - they tend to be sweeter. If they are slightly green, keep them at room temperature till they become a deep golden brown color and edges of the rib just begin to turn brown. If you get stuck with a more sour fruit, slice it and put in a bowl with equal parts of honey and sugar.
- Let it rest for an hour, covered, in the refrigerator before serving."
- Cut the chicken into cubes. Put the cloves, salt, onion and carrot into the water and bring to a boil. Poach the chicken cubes for 5-7 min. Drain and chill.
- Mix together sugar and honey and add in the carambola slices. Chill covered for 1 hour.
- Mix the fruit with lemon juice, salt, mayonnaise, chicken and white pepper to taste.
- Serve immediately or possibly cover and refrigerateuntil serving.
