I served this a while back. My Mom said it was a very strange salad-but she had 2 helpings! I have always loved the tastes of watermelon with feta cheese and when I saw this salad on " THE ART OF ARMENIAN & MIDDLE EASTERN COOKING " In was very happy to try it-and I liked it- and so did everyone at dinner!
WATERMELON, FETA & OLIVE SALAD
2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
Juice of 2 limes
Coarse sea salt and freshly
ground black pepper (OPTIONAL)
1⁄4 small red onion, thinly sliced *
1 2-lb. piece seedless watermelon,
rind removed, cut into 1" cubes
4 oz. feta cheese, crumbled (about 1⁄4 cup)
In a large bowl, whisk together the first 5 ingredients. Add the onions then toss gently with the watermelon and cheese.
*I slice the onions then put them in a baggie with some sea salt. Then squeeze a few times to soften the flavor then strain the juice and add to salad.
**You can add chopped jalapenos or sliced black olives to the salad.
