Watermelon and Cherry Tomato Salad with Feta, Almond and Za’atar Crumble
A vibrant watermelon and cherry tomato salad recipe, scattered with feta, almond and za'atar crumble. Complete the dish with striking white nasturtium flowers.
Introduction
There is nothing that reminds me more of home than watermelons, great mountains of them piled up in the market. And there is nothing better than a heavily chilled watermelon slice on a hot summer afternoon. With this in mind I created this salad. It’s very simple and absolutely delicious. Make sure you use perfectly ripe watermelon and tomatoes.
