Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 4

a 3 1/2-ounce can (about 1 cup) sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup boiling water
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated lime zest
4 cups julienne strips of honeydew melon, cantaloupe, Persian melon, or casaba or a combination, chilled

Steps:

  • In a blender purée the coconut with the water and the zest at high speed for 1 minute, let the mixture stand for 10 minutes, and force it through a fine sieve set over a bowl, pressing hard on the solids. Chill the coconut milk, covered, until it is very cold. Put the melon in a serving bowl, pour the coconut milk over it, and serve the dessert immediately.
