Ingredients

  • 3 - 4 cups fresh watermelon cubes
  • ½ teaspoon pink salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper powder
  • ½ teaspoon chaat masala powder
  • 2 teaspoon mint leaves chopped
  • 2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds

Instructions

  • Start by cubing the watermelon into small bite-sized pieces.
  • Place a small pan over medium heat and dry roast the cumin seeds. Once the cumin seeds could down make them into fine powder. Place them aside in a small bowl.
    1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • In a large bowl, add the watermelon cubes, chaat masala, roasted cumin seeds powder, lemon or lime juice, salt, black pepper, or cayenne pepper.
    3 - 4 cups fresh watermelon cubes, ½ teaspoon pink salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper powder, ½ teaspoon chaat masala powder, 2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Add finely chopped fresh mint leaves.
    2 teaspoon mint leaves chopped
  • Gently stir everything together until evenly mixed. Serve immediately or store in the fridge for later. Enjoy!

Notes

  • If you can't find chaat masala, you can substitute it with garam masala.
  • Freshly squeezed lemon juice is best but you can also use bottled lemon juice if that's what you have on hand.
  • I like to use pink Himalayan salt but any type of salt will work.
  • This dish is best enjoyed fresh but leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
  • If you like you can add sliced red onion to get an extra boost of flavor.
  • You can also add dry mango powder in place of lime juice.
