MELON, CUCUMBER AND CHERRY TOMATO SALAD



Melon, Cucumber and Cherry Tomato Salad image

This is an extremely simple, yet spectacularly refreshing salad, especially when made from height-of-the-season summer produce. Ripe melon mirrors the tomatoes' sweetness. Cucumber, a relative of melon, gives both crunch and flavor. A handful of basil and mint leaves, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice added just before serving, bring it all together.

Categories     salads and dressings, appetizer

Time 5m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 small melon, such as cantaloupe or honeydew (about 3 pounds), peeled, seeded and cut into 3/4-inch pieces
8 ounces cherry tomatoes of different colors, halved
2 medium English cucumbers (about 12 ounces), peeled and cut into 3/4-inch pieces
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons lime juice, plus more to taste
Small handful of basil leaves
Small handful of mint leaves

Steps:

  • Place melon, tomatoes and cucumber in a large salad bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and toss well. Drizzle with olive oil and lime juice. Toss lightly and leave to marinate for a few minutes and up to 30 minutes, to let the flavors mingle.
  • Add the basil leaves, tearing larger leaves into pieces, and the mint leaves.
  • Just before serving, fold the leaves into the salad and toss well. Taste and add a little more lime juice, as needed.

MELON, CUCUMBER AND TOMATO SALAD



Melon, Cucumber and Tomato Salad image

Melon and cucumber are a marvelous combination, never more so than when ripe tomatoes provide a bridge between the two. Parsley, mint and the refreshing bite of Champagne vinegar take the flavors even higher, making this salad both a perfect lunch or a fine start to a summer dinner.

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the vinaigrette ingredients. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside at room temperature while you prepare the skewers.
  • To assemble the skewers, thread one tomato, feta cube, olive, and cucumber slice onto the skewer. Transfer to a serving platter. (When threading on the feta, hold it tightly between your fingers to avoid it cracking and/or breaking. I usually like to have a few extra cubes of feta in case some do break). Repeat until you have a total of 12 skewers.
  • Right before serving, drizzle the skewers with the vinaigrette. If desired, garnish with parsley and season with additional salt and pepper.
