Simple tasty salads. Watermelon, Crumbled Feta, Rosewater and Mint
Watermelon, chilled slices await our family in summer. So hydrating, that distinct smell of sweetness.
Watermelon pairs delightfully with feta, mint and rosewater. A perfect palate refresher, take to parties and of course a great afternoon snack to re-hydrate.
I had snow pea sprouts and used it as a garnish, totally not necessary to go and and purchase specifically for this salad. If your not fond of radish substitute for watercress and scatter before garnishing with mint. Each fresh ingredient has it's own healing nutrients and benefits.
Minimal ingredients and time to make. You will need rosewater, see it as the salt and pepper of dishes. Rosewater enhances watermelon. I have shared several recipes with Rosewater, have a sticky beak on the blog.
The host of a recent event requested that I bring a Watermelon Salad. It was enjoyed by all and recipe shared:)
