Nothing screams summer more than watermelon and in this refreshing salad, I've combined it with hydrating cucumber and fresh mint, along with a zesty lime dressing. It's so simple but the quality of the seasonal ingredients means that it's a combination which tastes amazing, works well with many dishes and is unusual enough to make it an impressive dish to serve guests. Case in point, I served this at the recent Lunch & Learn event where it proved popular with all of the attendees. I can't wait to hear what you think.

Method:
1) Mix together the watermelon, cucumber and mint in a bowl. Stir gently, taking care not to break up the delicate watermelon.
