Ingredients
- 6 cups watermelon cubed
- 2 ears sweet corn
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1/2 tsp sugar
- 4 leaves basil fresh
- 1/3 cup feta cheese crumbled
Instructions
- Husk the corn and wrap in wet paper towels. Microwave for about 3 minutes. Plunge the hot corn into an ice bath to cool down and stop the cooking. Note: you can also boil or steam the corn if you prefer. Cook it just until barely tender, don't over cook.
- Slice the kernels off the cooled ears of corn.
- Combine the watermelon and corn in a serving bowl.
- Combine the lime juice and sugar and stir to dissolve.
- Drizzle the lime juice over the salad, just enough to moisten everything. Top with shredded basil and feta cheese and serve immediately or chill until needed. Note: to slice the basil, stack the leaves and roll them together tightly, then slice into thin ribbons, crosswise.
