Watermelon Salad

INGREDIENTS

1 red onion

3 tablespoons lime juice

1 1/2 kilograms watermelon

1 bunch fresh mint, basil or cilantro (chopped)

4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

100 grams pitted sun dried or Kalamata olives

250 grams feta cheese

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Cut the red onion into fine slices. Place the onions in the lime juice. This will soften the sharp flavour of the onions. The lime juice will turn a light pink colour.

2. While that is marinating, cut the watermelon into cubes or balls using a melon baller. This looks so appetizing.

3. Cut the feta into bite sized pieces.

4. Assemble the watermelon, herbs, and olives in a salad bowl.

5. Add the olive oil and black pepper to the onions and lime juice. Stir this to combine.

6. Add to the watermelon mix and gently toss.

7. Scatter the feta over the salad. Add these at the end to maintain the white colour.
