Method

Peel the oranges and slice them into thick rounds. Plunge the tomatoes into boiling water for 30 seconds, then refresh in cold water. Peel away the skins, cut the tomatoes into quarters, remove the seeds and chop roughly.
Cut the avocados in half, remove the stones and carefully peel away the skin. Cut into chunks.
