Ingredients:

  • 4 lb seedless watermelon
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1 tbsp Tajín Clásico seasoning
  • 1/2 cup coconut cream
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 tsp lime zest
  • 1 pinch of salt

Instructions:

  1. Slice the watermelon in half lengthwise and cut each half into 1-inch thick rounds.
  2. Carve the red flesh from the rounds into sticks approximately 3 inches long and 1/2 inch wide, ensuring all white rind is removed.
  3. Place the watermelon sticks in a large bowl and drizzle evenly with fresh lime juice, tossing gently to coat.
  4. Immediately sprinkle the Tajín or chili seasoning over the fruit and toss again until evenly dusted.
  5. Spread the fries in a single layer on a chilled serving platter and refrigerate for 30 minutes to set the seasoning.
  6. For the optional dip, whisk together coconut cream, honey, lime zest, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
