Recipe



Cut the melons in half and remove and discard the seeds. Using a melon
baller, cut balls from the flesh of the melons into a bowl, or cut into
neat cubes.

Peel the tomatoes: cut out the cores and score an "X" on the base of each
on, then immerse into a bowl of boiling water until the skins start to
split. Transfer immediately to a bowl of cold water. Peel and seed the
tomatoes, then cut the flesh into long strips. Add the strips to the
melon.

In a small bowl whisk together the oil and vinegar, then add the sugar, and
salt and pepper to taste. Pour the dressing over the melon and tomato
mixture. Cover and chill at least 1 hour.

To serve, stir the 1 Tb chopped mint into the melon and tomato mixture,
spoon the salad into chilled bowls, and garnish each serving with a mint
sprig.
