Ingredients

  • 1/4 large seedless watermelon, cut in 1 1/2 inch cubes
  • 1 1/2 red chili
  • Pinch of turmeric

Instructions

Cut up watermelon. Take 1 cup watermelon cubes and blend to make a juice. To the juice add the chili, turmeric, coriander, garlic and salt to taste.

Heat the oil in a wok, add the cumin seeds and within 20 seconds, add the watermelon juice mixture. Lower heat and simmer for 5 minutes, so the spices cook completely and the juice is reduced by 1/3. If using sugar, add it now, then add lime juice and cook for 1 minute.

Add remaining chopped watermelon and cook over low heat for 3-4 minutes, gently tossing it until all the pieces are covered in the spice mixture. Serve as a side dish.
