Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole Cantaloupe or honeydew melon
- 1 whole Lime
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Fresh mint leaves
- 1 pinch Sea salt
Instructions
Wash and dry the melon thoroughly. Using a sharp knife, cut the melon in half and scoop out the seeds with a spoon.
Slice each melon half into 6 to 8 wedges, depending on the size of the melon. Leave the rind on for easy handling.
Arrange the melon wedges on a serving platter, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
Roll the lime on the countertop gently to release its juices. Cut it in half and squeeze the juice into a small bowl.
Add the honey to the lime juice and mix well until combined and slightly thinner in consistency.
Drizzle the honey-lime mixture evenly over the melon wedges, letting the sauce coat each wedge lightly.
Finely chop the fresh mint leaves and sprinkle them over the melon for a pop of flavor and color.
Add a small pinch of sea salt over the wedges to enhance the sweetness of the melon.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 hour before serving for a chilled treat. Enjoy!
