Watermelon Feta Cubes – A salty sweet appetiser perfect for those hot summer afternoons. Healthy, low calorie and packed with vitamins, this bite size appetiserAdd some mint or basil leaves for extra flavour and drizzle with balsamic vinegar cream.
In order to avoid dealing with the seeds and basically wasting most of the centre of the fruit, get a seedless small sized watermelon. Cut it in half, slice it, cut it in cubes and let the cubes dry for a while on kitchen paper. Pat dry the feta with some kitchen paper and cut it in cubes, same size as the watermelon. Grab your skewers and start pinching!
This is a favourite summer appetiser or even dessert, best served cold so once you prepare it, let it rest for at least one hour in the fridge. Add the balsamic cream just before serving so that the dish doesn’t get too messy.
You can always turn this vegetarian dish into vegan by replacing the feta cheese with tofu, just season the tofu with salt, pepper and paprika to taste and cut into cubes.
