150 g (5 oz) feta cheese, crumbled
Fresh mint leaves
2–3 tbsp balsamic glaze

Optional

Freshly ground black pepper
Extra virgin olive oil
Flaky sea salt

Notes & Pro Tips

Chill the watermelon before assembling for the freshest flavor.
Pat the watermelon dry if it’s especially juicy to prevent excess liquid from collecting.
Add the balsamic glaze just before serving for the best presentation.
Small mint leaves can be left whole, while larger leaves are best torn into smaller pieces.
Best enjoyed fresh on the day it’s made.
