Whole grilled watermelon with spices and salty maple dressing
Report
Deliciously sweet and juicy melon from the oven. Roasted as a whole. Perfect as a showpiece for a fancy (Christmas) dinner. Serve the melon whole and cut slices at the table. Like a nice ham or a roast beef, but vegetarian. Even vegan and soy-free.
