I find watermelon addictive in the summer months and I also find it perfect for weight loss especially when served with the prawns. No need for more carbohydrate with this dish. Remember that you don’t absorb the cholesterol from prawns into your bloodstream.

Tiger Prawn & Watermelon Salad

350g cooked tiger prawns

50g pine nuts
Handful fresh basil leaves
Handful fresh mint leaves

For the dressing:

1 tbsp low salt soy sauce
1 tbsp lime juice
1 tbsp light olive oil
1 tbsp rice vinegar

How to make Tiger Prawn & Watermelon Salad

1. Start by making the dressing. Mix all the dressing ingredients together in a bowl.

2. Now pile the prawns and watermelon on to your serving dish, sprinkle over the sunflower seeds and pine nuts and just before serving pour over the dressing.
