FROZEN MELON WITH CRUSHED RASPBERRIES AND LIME

Steps:

• Blend melon in a food processor or blender until completely smooth; you should have about 4 cups purée. Transfer to a 9-by-4-inch loaf pan (or a shallow baking dish, if you have space for it in your freezer).
• Add 1/2 cup lime juice and 2 tablespoons sugar and stir to blend; season with more lime juice and sugar, as needed. The mixture should be fairly tart and sweet. (The sweetness dulls once the mixture is frozen, so stay on the sweeter side now.) Place in freezer and let freeze until completely solid, anywhere from 2 to 4 hours, depending on your freezer.
• Once the mixture is frozen, use a spoon or fork to scrape the frozen melon into a fluffy pile of ice. If it becomes soft or melty when scraping, place it in the freezer until it's solid enough to scrape again.
• If serving immediately, lightly pack some of the ice into serving glasses or bowls. (If not, transfer the ice to a resealable container and freeze until ready to serve. The frozen melon can be prepared up to 2 weeks ahead; if scraped, it might need a little re-fluffing before serving.) Top each serving with raspberries and use a spoon or fork to crush them into the ice. Top with more ice, followed by a bit of lime zest, and then a little sumac and flaky salt, if using.

SECTIONED MELON WITH BERRIES AND SORBET

Steps:

• Cut a thin piece of the skin off of the back of each wedge of melon to give the melon sections stability. Top each melon boat with a scoop of mango or strawberry sorbet. Toss berries with a little sugar and spill them down and over the sorbet and melon.

STRAWBERRY, MELON & GINGER SUNDAES

Steps:

• Gently mix the melon and strawberries together in a large bowl with a spoon or your hands, then pile half into four glass tumblers. Sprinkle with half the biscuit crumbs.
• Stir the chopped ginger and syrup into the yogurt and spoon into the tumblers. Pile the rest of the fruit on top, then scatter with the remaining crumbs.
• Sprinkle a teaspoon of muscovado sugar on top of each dessert and chill until ready to serve (up to 2 hours ahead) - the sugar will gradually melt to give a yummy toffee flavour.
• Take out of the fridge about 15 minutes before serving, so they are not too chilled.
