Watermelon with its bright pink colour flesh
will be seen around summer in India. As the fruit has high water content and is
a thirst quencher in the hot temperature.
It is also said that taking watermelon reduces
high blood pressure. For this month's Sshhhh secretly cooking challenge , I was paired with Veena Krishnakumar.The ingredients which veena krishnakumar gave were
watermelon and Mint.

remaining into slices.
Squeeze juice out of Lemon.
In a bowl , add the
watermelon balls , pomegranate and chopped onion , toss well.
In the serving bowl ,
arrange the sliced onion around the edges. Place the mixed salad in the centre .
Chill in the refrigerator
till serving.
In a shaker bottle add the
lemon juice , salt , pepper powder , sesame oil , Chopped Mint leaves and shake well.

just before serving.
