Steps

1To begin making the Asian Watermelon Salad recipe, Firstly refrigerate the watermelon for at least an hour ahead of preparing the salad.
2In a large bowl, gently combine all the salad ingredients except the lime zest and the peanuts.
3Do not replace Baby Radish with Long white/Daikon because it has a very peppery taste and can be overpowering. Simply skip if you do not find baby radish
4In another small mixing bowl add all the ingredients mentioned under ‘For dressing’ and mix well.
5Pour the dressing over the salad and top it with crushed peanuts and the lime zest.
6Serve Asian Watermelon Salad on its own for a light and healthy dinner or you can also serve it as a side dish with Mushroom Fried Rice.
