GREEK-STYLE WATERMELON SALAD



Greek-Style Watermelon Salad image

It's not an immediately obvious combination - watermelon, cucumber, olives and feta - but one bite will leave you convinced that this savory-sweet summer salad is something truly special. The astringent punch of the olives and feta provides a sophisticated counterpoint to the watery mellowness of the melon and cucumber. With a hunk of bread, it's a lovely light lunch; with practically any grilled meat or fish, it's an ideal summer supper.

AMAZING WATERMELON GREEK SALAD WITH FETA



Amazing Watermelon Greek Salad With Feta image

This refreshing salad will surprise you and your guests with how well the flavours work together. At first, it might seem strange, but one taste and you will be hooked. The cool, crunchy watermelon is the perfect base for the pungent, greek flavours - it's a perfect balance of savoury and sweet. A similar salad was served to me at a cafe a few years back. I had always remembered it and finally decided to try to recreate it. This is about as close to the original I could get. :) ***note*** Feel free to experiment with flavours. Try adding in some fresh basil OR fresh mint in place of the balsamic vinegar. Or leave out the vinegar altogether.

Time 10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
6 cups seedless watermelon, cubed
3/4 cup feta cheese, cubed (or crumbled)
1/2 cup black olives, pitted and halved (or use sliced ripe olives)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
balsamic vinegar, to taste
fresh parsley, chopped, to garnish

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, cover the onion slices with the lime juice. The acid in the lime juice will help to mellow the onion a bit.
  • In a large salad bowl, combine the watermelon, feta, olives, and onions (without the lime juice, but save the juice for the vinegrette) Set aside.
  • Wisk together the reserved lime juice, olive oil and as much balsamic vinegar to suit your taste and preferences. Keep in mind there is quite a bit of flavour in the salad from the feta and olives so just 1 or 2 tbsp usually does the trick.
  • Pour vinegrette over melon mixture and toss. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
