Seasonal cuisine 2024 - watermelons

It's watermelon season. We have smallish, elongated oval, smooth, green-black ones with red flesh, roundish, green-black, loosely ribbed ones with golden-yellow flesh and huge oval dark and light-green striped ones with red flesh. All crisp, sweet and delicious. I am currently stuffing myself with this very simple salad:

As much watermelon as you want, cubed
As much feta as you want, crumbled
As many shelled walnuts as you want, roughly chopped
A few leaves of whatever basil you have, shredded.

Mix in a bowl, eat. I find dressing unnecessary. For dinner, I might add a nice slice of home-made toast, buttered. Housekeeper makes it with a mixture of regular bread flour and atta (Indian wholemeal) flour.

Yum.
