Grind up the peanuts then set it aside. Heat the oil inside a pan for frying then add in onions, garlic & pork until the pinkish color is not present anymore.
Drain out almost all the fat then add in pepper & sugar then cook for 1-2 mins. Next, add in ground peanuts and blend everything well and take it out of the heat. Allow to cool in room temp.
Line a serving platter with the lettuce then peel & segment the fruits if you are using them and cut each of the segments down to the back and fan them out to make a circle.
Arrange the fruits onto the platter. Mound the meaty mixture on the fruit then decorate it with other garnishing. You can serve it chilled or in room temp.
