Peel the apple, remove the core and seeds and cut into quarters. Place in the bowl with the other vegetables and nuts.

In a frying pan over medium heat, quickly brown the chayote in butter for 2 minutes. Season and sprinkle with cumin. Let cool.

Add the other vegetables, mix well, pour over some of the vinaigrette and let it marinate for 1 hour before serving.
