Watermelon Feta Mint Salad
This salad is really an argument for restraint: cold, ripe watermelon barely needs help, so we let it lead and use feta and mint to point up the sweetness rather than cover it. Serve it straight from the fridge.
Method
Combine
Arrange the watermelon on a large platter and scatter the red onion over the top.
Add the feta and mint
Crumble the feta evenly across the platter and tear the mint leaves over it.
Dress
Drizzle with the lime juice and olive oil.
Finish and serve
Finish with flaky salt and a crack of black pepper, and serve cold.
Kitchen notes
Salt the watermelon only right before serving — salting it ahead draws out the juices and leaves you with a watery platter.
