Chinese Shrimp Salad

This is quite sweet as contains fruit - but it is a nice light refreshing summer dinner - or a quick and easy potluck dish!
Serve with lettuce and usual green salad ingredients.
Instead of using apples - you can also used pre-cooked new potatoes.

1 (11 ounce) can lychee fruit, drained with juice reserved
1 pound cooked shrimp - peeled and de-veined
3 Fuji apples - peeled, cored and cubed
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 cup mayonnaise

Combine lychees, shrimp and apples. Add lemon juice and 1/4 cup of reserved lychee juice - chill for 15 mins.

After chilling - drain liquid (reserving it!!) - combine drained liquid with mayonnaise and toss together with other ingredients. Chill till needed.
