Today, I am excited to share a unique dish that combines the flavors of summer in a surprising and delicious way. This recipe for Grilled Watermelon with Feta and Mint is perfect for a warm evening when you want something light, refreshing, and full of flavor.

Ingredients:

  • 1 small seedless watermelon (about 1200g)
  • 200g feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
  • 2 tbsp balsamic glaze
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Kitchen Tools:

  • grill
  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • mixing bowl

Preparation:

To start, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. While the grill is heating up, cut the watermelon into thick slices, about 1 inch thick. Brush each side of the watermelon slices with olive oil to prevent sticking on the grill.

Once the grill is hot, place the watermelon slices on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, until grill marks appear. Remove the watermelon from the grill and let it cool slightly.

In a mixing bowl, crumble the feta cheese and chop the fresh mint leaves. Once the watermelon has cooled, top each slice with a sprinkle of feta cheese and mint. Drizzle with balsamic glaze for a sweet and tangy finish.

Serving:

This Grilled Watermelon with Feta and Mint dish weighs approximately 1500g total and serves 4 people. Each serving is around 375g, with an estimated 200 calories per serving.

Tips:

For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a sprinkle of sea salt and a squeeze of fresh lime juice before serving. The combination of sweet watermelon, salty feta, and tangy balsamic glaze is sure to impress your guests.

I encourage you to give this unique dish a try and make it your own. Feel free to experiment with different herbs, cheeses, or toppings to customize it to your taste preferences. Enjoy!
