Ingredients
🥒2 cucumbers
🍈1 melon
🥬1 small handful of fresh basil
🌶️1 teaspoon chopped chili pepper (optional)
For the sauce
🫒2 tablespoons of olive oil
🍋2 teaspoons of lemon juice
🍋1 teaspoon of lime peel
🧂A pinch of salt
Cut the cucumbers in half lengthwise. Using a spoon, carefully remove the seeds and then cut them into 1 cm thickness. Add the cucumber to a large serving bowl. Then cut the melon in half and remove the seeds. We use a round spoon to give them a spherical shape and place them in the serving bowl.
🥗 To prepare the sauce, mix all the ingredients in a small bowl and adjust the flavors to your liking. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Just before serving, garnish with fresh basil and chopped chili pepper as desired.
