Zespri International, the world's largest Kiwifruit marketer, in association with ITC Gardenia conducted a kiwifruit Master class at the Lotus Pavilion, ITC Gardenia, Bangalore...
Kiwi fruit is a nutritious and healthy food. It is a rich source of vitamin C and vitamin K and a good source of dietary fiber and vitamin E.
I was looking forward to have a first-hand experience of putting together some quick kiwi based dishes...
First dish of the day was Kiwi Cheesecake...
Here's the recipe...
The final Kiwi Cheese cake ready to be devoured...
It was refreshing to drink a Kiwi Caprioshka...
Next up was Spicy Kiwi and Avocado Gunkan. Gunkan is a type of Sushi which resembles a Japanese Battle Ship. It is used to serve any type of loose ingredients...
Here's the recipe...
Some more cocktails...
The third dish was Carpaccio of Kiwi with Prawns, Kiwi and Citrus vinaigrette. This was the first time I ate uncooked prawns. It was little chewy but good...
Here's the recipe...
The Italian chef Vittorio Greco in action...
Zespri Spife - Half spoon and half knife, makes it so easy to cut and scoop kiwifruits...
That Kiwi Cheesecake looks amazing, I have to say. I'm saving that recipe!

Kiwi fruit and cakes, yup however I'd not like the tanker or squid or prawns, lovely photography
ReplyDeleteWow! Love kiwi - stunning dishes I'd like to try.
ReplyDeleteI would love EVERY tasty morsel & sip...though I am reluctant to eat raw fish or meat in India. I love my beef raw or rare as in carpaccio & steak tartar. I can't believe you haven't developed a pot belly with all the fancy dining,l.
ReplyDeleteI love a capricosia! Never tried a kiwi one. Sounds delish.
ReplyDeleteLove that you've included the recipes! Thank you :)
ReplyDeleteFresh kiwi in all those delicious recipes...I would love to sample them all.
ReplyDeleteI love Kiwi too. The cheesecake and drinks look delicious... Thanks for sharing, enjoy your week!
ReplyDeleteYumm cheesecake, kiwi cheese cake. Now I want some.
ReplyDeleteSo many ways to enjoy kiwi! I've had WiFi issues while away and many of my comments are not showing up. Would you please link back to Mosaic Monday when you join the party. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI am just drooling. Nothing I enjoy more than kiwi. Wish I had a big slice of that cake.
ReplyDeleteI think I'd like the cheesecake, but I'm not sure about uncooked prawns. I like your portrait of the chef.
ReplyDeleteI'm pleased you said Kiwifruit at the beginning as a lot of people don't seem to realise that a Kiwi is a flightless bird and not something you eat. That is why in New Zealand we always call it kiwifruit. It sounds so strange when people tell us they are eating our national bird, or using it in recipes. Having said all that I have enjoyed your post and think your recipes look and sound delicious.

DeleteIt sounds like you're referring to a "Zespri Kiwifruit Masterclass" event that took place at the ITC Gardenia, which is likely a hotel or event venue. This event might have been organized to educate attendees about Zespri kiwifruit, its benefits, culinary uses, and more. Zespri is a well-known brand that specializes in exporting high-quality kiwifruit.
