WATERMELON SALAD WITH GINGER DRESSING

This watermelon salad with ginger dressing is the perfect combination of sweet watermelon, savory tomatoes, and a zesty dressing with ginger shot and lime. A quick summer salad that's ready in just 15 minutes and is ideal as a light lunch, a side dish for grilling, or a refreshing snack on hot days.

INGREDIENTS FOR TWO PEOPLE

• 500 g watermelon
• 300-400 g tomatoes
• ½ cucumber
• 1 red onion
• 1 handful of basil leaves
• 50 g feta (or plant-based alternative)

INGREDIENTS FOR THE DRESSING

• 1 Ginger Shot Classic
• Juice of ½ lime
• Salt, colorful pepper, chili (ground)
• 1 tbsp balsamic glaze
• 1 tbsp olive oil

PREPARATION

Cut the watermelon into small pieces and deseed if necessary. Wash the tomatoes, remove their green stem, halve them and cut them into thin slices. Wash the cucumber and also cut it into thin slices. Peel the onion, halve it and cut it into thin slices. Pick off the basil leaves, wash them and let them drain.

For the dressing: Smoothly whisk together the ginger shot, lime juice, balsamic glaze, and olive oil, then season with salt, pepper, and chili.

For a nicer presentation: Arrange the watermelon, tomatoes, cucumber, and onion attractively on a platter, scatter basil and feta over them, and drizzle with the dressing. Alternatively, if presentation is secondary, you can also put all ingredients in a bowl and mix with the dressing.
