When it comes to unique and delicious food combinations, mixing watermelon and egg might not be the first thing that comes to mind. However, this pairing can create a surprisingly delightful and nutritious dish that is both refreshing and satisfying. Here’s how to make this simple yet extraordinary recipe that doesn’t require any sugar.
Ingredients
2 cups of diced watermelon (seedless if possible)
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon of olive oil or butter
A pinch of salt
A dash of black pepper
Fresh herbs like mint or basil (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the Watermelon Start by cutting the watermelon into small, bite-sized cubes. Make sure to remove any seeds if you are not using a seedless variety. Set the watermelon cubes aside in a bowl.
Cook the Eggs In a skillet, heat the olive oil or butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and scramble them gently. Cook until the eggs are just set but still soft and fluffy. Season with a pinch of salt and a dash of black pepper.
Combine Watermelon and Eggs Once the eggs are cooked, remove the skillet from the heat. Allow the eggs to cool slightly, then gently fold in the diced watermelon. The key is to mix them carefully so the watermelon maintains its shape and the eggs stay fluffy.
Add Fresh Herbs (Optional) For an added burst of flavor, you can sprinkle some fresh herbs like mint or basil over the top. These herbs complement the sweetness of the watermelon and the savory taste of the eggs perfectly.
Serve and Enjoy Serve the watermelon and egg mixture immediately. This dish is best enjoyed fresh, offering a delightful contrast between the juicy, cool watermelon and the warm, savory eggs.
