Today’s Adventure: Grilled Watermelon Salad with Pickled Peaches

I’m excited to share with you a refreshing and unique recipe that combines the sweetness of grilled watermelon with the tanginess of pickled peaches. This dish is perfect for a warm summer day or as a side dish for a BBQ.

For this adventurous recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 1 small watermelon (about 500g), cut into cubes
  • 2 peaches, sliced
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 100g feta cheese, crumbled
  • Handful of fresh mint leaves
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

To prepare this dish, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

  • Grill
  • Mixing bowl
  • Tongs
  • Knife
  • Cutting board

Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat. Place the watermelon cubes on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until grill marks appear. Remove from the grill and let them cool.

In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced peaches, red onion, and crumbled feta cheese. Add the grilled watermelon cubes on top.

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, white wine vinegar, salt, and pepper to create a dressing. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss everything together.

Top the salad with fresh mint leaves for a burst of flavor.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 800g, with about 4 servings. Each serving is around 200g, with an estimated calorie count of 150 per serving.

One tip to make this dish even more flavorful is to let the salad marinate in the dressing for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together beautifully.

I hope you give this Grilled Watermelon Salad with Pickled Peaches a try and enjoy the unique combination of flavors. Feel free to customize it with your favorite fruits or cheeses. Happy cooking!
