Ingredients

  • ¼ tsp cumin seed
  • ¼ tsp coriander seed
  • 200g block feta cheese (you can use light if you prefer), halved
  • a little olive oil
  • 2 handfuls mixed salad leaves
  • small handful flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped
  • 2 mint sprigs, leaves picked
  • 2 large pitta breads, quartered
  • 175g pack watermelon chunks, or equivalent whole chunk), chopped into small pieces
  • juice 2 limes
  • 1 red chilli, finely chopped
  • ½ red onion, finely chopped

Preparation

Serves 2

  1. Using a pestle and mortar, crush the cumin and coriander seeds with a coarse grinding of pepper. Sit the feta on a plate, sprinkle over the spice mix – turning the feta so all sides are coated – and finish with a little olive oil. Set aside.
  2. Mix the salsa ingredients together and season. Mix together the salad leaves, parsley and mint.
  3. Brush the pittas with a little more oil and pop under a grill to heat through. Put a block of feta each on 2 plates, and serve with a spoonful of salsa, salad and pitta.
