TIPS

Here are some helpful tips for Refreshing Lime-Chilli Watermelon Bites:

  • Use fresh lime juice: The fresh lime juice enhances the natural sweetness of watermelon.
  • Choose ripe watermelon: Ripe watermelon ensures the juiciest and most flavourful bites.
  • Adjust spice level: Increase or decrease chilli powder according to taste preference.
  • Add a pinch of salt: Salt balances the sweetness and enhances flavour.

VARIATIONS

  • Minty Twist: Add freshly chopped mint leaves for extra freshness.
  • Cheesy Addition: Crumble feta or cotija cheese for a savoury contrast.
  • Tropical Infusion: Mix in pineapple or mango cubes for extra tropical sweetness.
  • Balsamic Glaze: Drizzle with balsamic reduction for a tangy gourmet touch.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Short-Term Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
  • Best Served Fresh: Watermelon releases liquid over time, so it’s best enjoyed fresh.
  • Freezing: Freezing is not recommended because the texture becomes mushy when thawed.
