Description
Watermelon marinated in honey, vinegar and mint, then sauteed.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 peeled, sliced watermelon
- 1 heaping tablespoon of honey
- 2 tablespoons Spanish Sherry vinegar (or plain white wine vinegar)
- 1 good bunch of mint leaves
- Salt to taste
- Olive oil for sauteeing
Instructions
- Arrange slices of watermelon on a large dish. Wash and dry the mint, then mince finely with a knife.
- In a bowl, mix honey, vinegar and chopped mint. Stir vigorously. Spread this marinade on the slices of watermelon and let stand at least 15 minutes.
- In a nonstick skillet, pour a little oil and smear the entire surface with a kitchen brush. Put the pan on high heat and when hot, place the watermelon slices wetted in the marinade. Let the slices sautee 3 or 4 minutes per side; you’ll notice them change to an orange-reddish color.
- Once done, remove to a platter and cut into bite-sized pieces or the size you prefer. Serve as an appetizer on a hot day, barely warm or at ambient temperature.
