Ingredients
- 1 ripe melon, approximately 700g in total prepared weight
- 1 banana shallot, finely sliced
- 2 burrata balls (125g each)
For the dressing:
- 5 tbsp olive oil
- 10 fresh curry leaves
- 2 tsp nigella seeds
- 1 green chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
- 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 2 tsp honey
Method
1. For the dressing, heat the oil in a small frying pan over a medium heat. Add the curry leaves and sizzle for 1 - 2 minutes until aromatic (be careful as they will splutter). Add the nigella seeds for the final 30 seconds. Pour the hot oil, curry leaves and seeds into a bowl and leave to cool.
2. Mix the remaining ingredients for the dressing into the curry leaf oil and season well.
3. Arrange the melon and shallot on a platter, drizzle with most of the dressing and lightly toss together with your hands. Leave to macerate for 20 - 30 minutes at room temperature.
4. Nestle the burrata into the salad, gently tear each ball open and season with a little flaky sea salt. Spoon the remaining dressing over.
