A colorful and flavorful salad with a tasty syrup. This also works well as a salad, tossing all of the melon balls together in a large serving bowl and drizzling with the syrup and topped with cilantro. Found on a grocery store recipe card.
Ingredients:
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 inch piece gingerroot, peeled and diced
1 lime, zested and juiced
1 cantaloupe, halved and seeded
1 honeydew melon, halved and seeded
1 small watermelon, halved
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped finely
20 (10 inch) skewers
Directions:
1. Combine sugar, and water in a saucepan, and bring to a boil.
2. Once sugar has dissolved, remove pan from heat, and stir in ginger, lime zest and lime juice. Allow syrup to cool.
3. Scoop melon balls from cantaloupe, honeydew melon, and watermelon.
4. Place the melon balls on the skewers, alternating types.
5. Drizzle or brush skewers with the syrup and sprinkle with cilantro.
