A delightful and refreshing salad combining the sweetness of watermelon with the tanginess of feta cheese, perfect for warm days.
Place the thinly sliced red onion in a large bowl.
Soak the onion slices in cold water for a few minutes to reduce their sharpness.
Add the seedless watermelon cubes, crumbled feta cheese, sliced cucumber, and toasted pumpkin seeds to the bowl.
Ensure the watermelon is chilled for a refreshing salad.
Sprinkle the fresh mint leaves over the salad.
Tear the mint leaves gently to release their aroma.
Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the salad and season with freshly ground black pepper and sea salt to taste.
Mix the dressing ingredients separately for even distribution.
Toss the salad gently using salad tongs to combine all ingredients.
Be gentle to avoid breaking the watermelon cubes.
Transfer the salad to a serving platter and serve immediately.
Garnish with additional mint leaves for a fresh look.
