Description

Cooking Time

Preparation Time :10 Min

Cook Time : 5 Min

Total Time : 15 Min

Ingredients

Serves : 2
  • 2 cups watermelon (scooped or cubed into bite-sized chunks)


  • 1 nos cucumber (we’ll use only half)


  • 1 nos cherry tomatoes (or ripe medium tomato)


  • 1/2 cups pomegranate seeds


  • 1/4 cups mint and coriander leaves


  • 1/2 cups peanuts (toasted and crushed)


  • 1 tbsp sprig curcumin imbued honey


  • 1 nos lime


  • 1 pinch salt

Directions

  • Slice the cucumber lengthways into long, thin ribbons using a vegetable peeler (or a knife) and roll them up. If you don’t have time, just chop them to thin slices.
  • Scoop out watermelon balls using a melon ball spoon. Alternatively just chop them into bite-size cubes using a knife.
  • Slice the cherry tomatoes in half. If you are using a regular tomato, finely chop to small pieces.
  • In a small mixing bowl, squeeze a lime, remove all the seeds, and add a tablespoon of curcumin imbued honey.
  • Chop the coriander and mint leaves.
  • Add a pinch of salt, a tablespoon of water, and mix well. This is our salad dressing.
  • Toast the peanuts until they start turning brown. Let them cool and gently crush them to coarse bits.
  • For best results, keep all the ingredients except the peanuts chilled in the refrigerator before you start prepping them.
  • Now to the final step of assembling them. In a salad bowl, arrange the watermelon balls, and place the cucumber rolls in the gaps.
  • Now add the cherry tomatoes, top with the pomegranate seeds, and garnish with the chopped coriander and mint leaves.
  • Drizzle liberally with our honey and lime dressing. Toss the crushed peanuts and we are ready to eat!
  • For added flavour, drizzle a little more curcumin imbued honey just before serving.
