Peal four naval oranges and slice them crosswise into very thin slices.

Peal and core three ripe pears and cut them into slices, about one third of a centimeter, around one quarter inch thick. You’ll also need about six pieces of fresh pineapple. Cut them into slices of the same thickness. You can often find pre cut pineapple slices at a supermarket. It is recommended that they be used within a week of purchase. Peal four bananas into slices about one third of a centimeter, around one quarter inch thick. Layer the fruit in a large mixing bow, ending with the oranges. In a small mixing bow, mix one cup of orange juice with one quarter teaspoon of vanilla extract. Pore the liquid over the fruit and chill for several hours, to allow the flavors to blend. When you’re ready to serve this desert, sprinkle one cup of graded fresh coconut over the fruit. This Recipe makes six to eight servings.
