Melon Mango Slaw With Lime And Ginger
- 1/6 whole cantaloupe
- 1/6 small, whole watermelon
- 1/2 small to medium mango
- 1 1/2 inch piece of ginger, finely grated
- 1/4 serrano pepper, seeded, minced as small as possible
- 10 mint leaves, chiffonade
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- zest from 1/2 lime
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, to taste
- Slice a large wedge out of both the cantaloupe and watermelon that equals about 1/6 of each melon. Cut off the skin of both melons and remove the seeds of the cantaloupe. Julienne the slices using a sharp knife or any tool you may have in your kitchen. I have a mandoline with a julienne option that worked great. Place the julienned melons in a bowl.
- Peel 1/2 of the mango and julienne the other half the same way. Add it to the bowl with the melons. Add the grated ginger and minced serrano pepper. If you don't want the little bit of kick the pepper gives, just reduce or omit it.
- Make the dressing by combining the juices, lime zest, and salt. Pour over the fruit and toss with the chiffonade mint.
- Let sit for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to get know each other and serve!
