Ingredients
  

  • 4 Persian cucumbers cut on a bias (about 13 ounces/365g)
  • 6 cups watermelon cubed (about 21 ounces/600g)
  • ½ red onion thinly sliced (about 4 ounces/120g)
  • 1 green onion chopped
  • 2 tablespoons parsley chopped
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the watermelon, cucumber, onions and parsley. Cut according to description of ingredients. Cut the watermelon into bite size cubes and I prefer to cut the cucumber on a slight bias.
  • In a bowl combine all the ingredients and mix together.
  • Chill in the fridge until ready to eat. Top with flakey sea salt if desired.

Notes

This dish is best enjoyed ice cold so I would suggest to refrigerate the cucumber and watermelon ahead of time or allow 3-4 hours of refrigeration time prior to serving.
