Cherry-filled Lemon Baskets Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Wash the lemons and cherries
  • Cut a thin slice of the bottom of lemon, placing so that it sits easily on a plate.
  • Make a cut half-way down into the lemon, where you want one edge of the handle to be.
  • Perpendicular to the handle cut, carefully slice lengthwise just to the handle cut, and remove piece.
  • Repeat on other side.
  • Cut out the thin interior meat in the handle. Handle is complete.
  • Using a knife carefully cut around the interior edge of the lemon, leaving the handle intact.
  • Using knife and serrated spoon, hollow out the interior of the lemon until you have a nice basket. (Reserve the interior to make lemon juice for another use.)
  • Repeat with other lemons.
  • Arrange baskets on plate, and fill artfully with cherries.
  • Enjoy the eye-feast and taste sensation.
