Fruit Delight with a Yoghurt dressing

I had plans for a savoury crepe recipe today but thanks to all the time spent in helping out with upcoming Navratri activities , I barely had the energy and time to make dinner. (I live in a retired Army and Naval officers' complex so it upto us as the 'younger' lot to try and make the most of the festive occasions:))
As part of my daily fruit quota, this salad saved the day. It is superrr easy and the best word I can use to describe it is 'beautiful'..look at the picture and you'll know . You can actually use any fruits of your choice for this as the dressing goes well with anything. Try it even on vegetable salads...

Ingredients

2 oranges
1 pomegranate


For the dressing

4 tablespoons yoghurt
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon mustard sauce (whole grain preferred)
1 garlic pod, crushed
1/2 teaspoon grated orange rind
Salt and pepper

1. Arrange the pomegranate seeds and peeled orange pieces on a plate (use your imagination here).
I removed the white orange membrane and used the flesh only .
2. Mix all the dressing ingredients and serve separately or poured over the salad.
3. Garnish with finely chopped mint or coriander leaves
4. Serve this salad chilled
