Notes

Tip from my kitchen: pick a ripe watermelon — it sounds hollow when tapped and has a yellowish patch where it rested on the ground. Cut the flesh into pieces and let it drain briefly in a colander so the salad does not turn watery. Fold in the vegan feta (I love Bedda) and the dressing only just before serving. A handful of fresh mint makes it even more summery, and a pinch of chili adds a nice kick if you like it spicy.
