Refreshing Watermelon Mint Salad
Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh watermelon, cubed
- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon lime zest
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
1. Prepare the Watermelon:
Begin by cutting the watermelon into approximately 1-inch cubes. Remove any seeds if necessary. Place the cubes into a large mixing bowl.
2. Chop the Mint:
Rinse the mint leaves under cold water, pat dry with a clean towel, and then finely chop. Add the chopped mint leaves to the bowl with the watermelon.
3. Make the Dressing:
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, honey, lime zest, and a pinch of salt until well combined. Make sure the honey is completely dissolved to ensure an even flavor distribution.
4. Combine Ingredients:
Pour the lime and honey dressing over the watermelon and mint. Gently toss with a spoon to ensure the watermelon is well coated with the dressing.
5. Chill and Serve:
For the best flavor, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the salad for at least 10 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.
6. Serve:
Serve the chilled watermelon mint salad in individual bowls. Optional: Garnish with a few whole mint leaves for added presentation.
For Best Results: Use a ripe, seedless watermelon for optimal sweetness and ease of preparation.
