About this recipe
These chilled watermelon, cucumber, and feta skewers with mint dip make a quick, eye-catching snack for hot days: juicy, salty, and fresh at once. Sweet watermelon, crisp cucumber, creamy feta, and a light mint-yogurt dip work well for a barbecue, picnic, casual gathering, or light evening plate. The recipe requires no cooking and is best served well chilled.
Ingredients
Skewers
500 g seedless watermelon
1 large pickling cucumber
200 g feta cheese
16 fresh mint leaves
24 toothpicks or short cocktail skewers
Mint Sauce
200 g thick plain yogurt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon honey
1 small garlic clove, finely grated or pressed
1 tablespoon finely chopped mint
a pinch of salt
a pinch of freshly ground pepper
Steps
Divide the watermelon into 24 pieces of about 20 g each. Wash the cucumber and cut into 24 slices; partially peel it if the skin is tough.
Divide the feta into 24 pieces of about 8 g each; they will be smaller than the watermelon cubes. Rinse and dry the mint leaves, then tear them into 24 small pieces in total.
Thread watermelon, cucumber, a piece of feta and mint onto each pick. Arrange the bites on a platter and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Combine the yogurt, lemon juice, honey, garlic and chopped mint in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper and chill until serving.
Serve the cold bites with the dip alongside or lightly drizzled over them on the plate, ideally immediately after taking them out of the refrigerator.
