Melon Boats ©
Easy
5-6 persons depending on the size of your Melon
Ingredients
1 Melon
Glacé cherries
A little sugar, if needed
Mulberry leaves…If available.
Method
1. Wash and cut melon into suitable segments.I usually cut in half and then each half into three.
2. With a large cook’s knife cut under the melon flesh, near the skin near to peel, but not so near, that you are cutting through unripe melon.
3.Then cut across at 2 cm intervals, (see photo,) and gently push each slice in opposite directions!
4. Decorate with Glacé cherries and arrange on serving dish on a bed of Mulberry leaves, or other edible leaves, if available.
N.B. If the Melon is not very sweet, sprinkle with a little white sugar. The sugar melts straight away. This can be prepared two hours beforehand.
