Dessert salad with watermelon and strawberries in white chocolate and mint sauce
Servings:
Ingredients
300 g strawberries, cut into pieces
300 g watermelon (weighed without skin and seeds)
1/4 cup mint leaves, chopped
White chocolate and white rum sauce:
4 tablespoons watermelon juice
50 g white chocolate
2 teaspoons liquid honey
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2-3 tablespoons white rum or Malibu coconut rum
Preparation
Rinse the strawberries, dry them, remove the stems, cut into pieces, and place in a salad bowl. Cut the watermelon into cubes, reserving any juice that collects (about 4 tablespoons). Pour the juice into a small bowl and set aside. Add the watermelon flesh along with the chopped mint to the strawberries and gently mix.
In a saucepan over minimal heat, constantly stirring, melt the white chocolate cut into cubes. As soon as it melts, remove from heat, add the reserved watermelon juice, honey, lemon juice, and white rum. Vigorously mix together all ingredients into a smooth sauce. If needed (if there are pieces of unmelted chocolate), put the saucepan back on low heat for a moment, warm without stopping to stir.
