How to make this Watermelon Curry Recipe
- Sauté the aromatics: Heat the coconut oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent. Add the chopped garlic and grated ginger, and cook for a few more minutes until the flavours have blended.
- Add the red pepper: Add the strips of red pepper to the frying pan and cook until tender.
- Add the curry powder: Now is the time to add a pinch of curry powder. Stir well so that all the ingredients are infused with the aroma and flavour of the curry.
- Add the watermelon: Add the watermelon cubes to the mixture in the frying pan. Cook for a few minutes, stirring gently, until the watermelon begins to soften slightly.
- Pour in the coconut milk: It’s time to give the curry a creamy texture. Pour the coconut milk into the pan and mix all the ingredients together well. Leave to simmer for about 10–15 minutes, or until the watermelon is completely tender and the curry has thickened slightly.
- Season to taste: Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to suit your personal preference.
- Serve and garnish: Once ready, remove the curry from the heat and serve it hot. If you like, garnish with chopped fresh coriander for an extra touch of freshness.
And there you have it! A watermelon curry that defies all expectations and awakens your senses with every bite. Who said watermelon could only be enjoyed as a dessert? With this recipe, you can take this summer fruit to a whole new level of flavour and sophistication.
