THIS was AMAZING.
Seriously.
Thai Cantaloupe Salad
1 large, ripe fragrant cantaloupe, peeled and cut into bite-size chunks
1 jalapeno, diced (can be seeded or not -- seeds make it hotter) or Thai red chile for more heat
1/3 cup thinly sliced basil leaves
3 to 4 Tbsp lime juice (or to taste) -- about one lime
1/2 tsp fish sauce (or to taste)
Generous pinch sugar
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
In large serving bowl, gently toss all ingredients together. Taste and adjust amounts of lime, sugar, fish sauce, and seasoning as desired.
Enjoy!
