Growing up, Watermelon was the most common fruit during the summer season in India. So we enjoyed it by making watermelon juice, fruit chaat or by just eating the diced pieces alone at home.

Recently I tried this delicious Watermelon Cucumber Mint Salad with lime dressing and I was blown away with the taste. It makes the perfect side dish, so do give it a try for your next BBQ or summer potlucks.

How to Make Watermelon Salad with Mint

Place the watermelon, cucumber, mint, coriander leaves in a large bowl.

Whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.

Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to coat.

Serving Suggestions

Serve Watermelon mint salad with a veggie burger, corn on the cob for your next summer gathering.

Tips & Variations

  • Look for sweet watermelon for this salad. Ones with a yellow splotch means the watermelon has ripened on the vine.
  • Make ahead: Prep all the ingredients ahead of time and refrigerate and combine them just before serving.
  • You may also add onions and jalapenos to make a sweet and spicy watermelon salad.
  • You can also sprinkle some feta cheese if you like.
