This is a variation on the classic cucumber relish that is omnipresent in the cuisines of Southeast Asia. Various versions of this simple, spicy relish appear in restaurants, street stalls, and homes throughout the region, but none contains watermelon - or at least none that I've seen. But I think it works, and it is truly international because guess what the Number One most popular fruit of the world is? That's right, watermelon. This is a good relish with grilled shellfish of any variety.
RECIPE INGREDIENTS
2 unpeeled cucumbers, washed, halved, and thinly sliced
1 cup watermelon chunks, the size of playing dice, seeded
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 carrot, peeled and thinly sliced
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar (you may substitute white vinegar)
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
salt and freshly cracked white pepper to taste
