Melon balls are melon balls, until you do something to them. This converts them to an exotic Asian‐style dish, easily eaten with toothpicks.

Ingredients

• 1 ripe cantaloupe or other orange‐fleshed melon
• 1 ripe honeydew or other green‐fleshed melon
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne, or to taste
• 1 tablespoon very finely minced cilantro leaves
• 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
• Sugar to taste (optional)

Preparation

Use a melon baller to remove all the flesh from the melons. Combine the balls in a bowl with the salt, coriander, cayenne, cilantro, and lime juice.

Taste and adjust seasoning; you may add more of anything. If the melon is not sufficiently sweet, add a bit of sugar. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 2 hours.
