⭐️ WATERMELON SALAD ⭐️
WITH FETA, WALNUT & NIGELLA

So there is no recipe really. Just follow the instructions below to prepare your ingredients and use as much or as little of each as you like. I like mine with lots of cheese. By the way, I find that Cheshire white cheese, available from supermarkets specialty cheese shops, is a great replacement for feta or Bulgarian cheese. Do give it a try if you can. It’s a gorgeous crumbly, salty cheese. Or use goats cheese, if you wish.

For a vegan version sprinkle some salt on watermelon cubes and use more walnuts. That’s how the Japanese eat their watermelon, with salt.

Instructions:

1. Soak walnuts in hot water for five minutes in a bowl. Rinse and cover with cold water and a pinch of salt. Let stand for a few minutes (it can soak for as long as half a day and will get even better with longer soaking). Rinse and drain.

2. Cut your watermelon into cubes or use a spoon to scoop out the red flesh and put in a bowl.

3. Cube or crumble the cheese over the watermelon. Add the walnut pieces and garnish with Persian basil or mint leaves.

4. Put your nigella seeds in a small pan and toast briefly on medium heat until fragrant. Sprinkle the seeds on the salad and enjoy!
