Watermelon and Tomato Salad with Burrata
This flavourful savoury zesty, yet sweet, watermelon and tomato salad is what I imagine summer to be like. It’s also prepared in a couple of minutes with fresh ingredients!
Servings: 4 side salads
Ingredients
- 200 g watermelon deseeded and cubed
- 200 g tomatoes or cherry tomatoes
- 2 burrata cheese
- handful of basil
- 6 anchovy fillets
- zest of a lemon
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp maldon salt
- 1 tsp pepper
Instructions
- Clean and cube the watermelon and place it into a large bowl. Cube the tomatoes or slice the cherry tomatoes and add to the bowl.
- Season generously the watermelon and tomatoes with salt, pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Set aside and let them rest for about 15 minutes.
- In the meantime take out your burrata and let it come to room temperature.
- Chop the anchovies until they have a paste like consistency. Mix the anchovies, olive oil and some chopped basil together. Set aside.
- Assemble everything by placing the watermelon and tomatoes on a serving plate, break the burrata on top. Drizzle everything with the anchovy dressing and sprinkle the zest of lemon together with some extra salt.
- Serve immediately!
