Fancy Fruit Platter

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 32
2. 2
   Use an ice pick or screwdriver and a hammer to pierce the eyes of the coconut. Set coconut, eyes down, in a colander set into a bowl to drain (the coconut's milk is great to sip).
3. 3
   Place coconut in oven on a baking sheet and bake until cracked around center, about 25 minutes.
4. 4
   Let coconut cool slightly; then, using the claw side of the hammer, tap the coconut all over to break into chunks. Pull off and discard shell, and then pare brown skin from coconut flesh.
5. 5
   Cut flesh into large chunks.
6. 6
   Arrange coconut, mango, papaya, pineapple, and limes on a large platter.
7. 7
   Combine salt and cayenne in a small bowl and serve alongside fruit for dipping.
