Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons champagne vinegar
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves, from about 3 or 4 sprigs
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup grapeseed oil
1 head arugula, soaked to remove all grit, stiff spines of leaves removed, dried in a salad spinner, and torn into bite-sized pieces
1 small red onion, sliced thin
1 small seedless watermelon, such as Crimson Sweet (or your choice, as long as the seeds are removed) cut into 1-inch cubes or into 1-inch spheres with a melon baller
3 ounces feta cheese, cubed

Steps:

  • Prepare vinaigrette just before use. Through the feed opening of a running blender, add 1 at a time: champagne vinegar, lemon juice, chopped mint, salt and pepper. Leaving the blender running, add the oil in a slow stream. Adjust seasoning, to taste, with salt and pepper.
  • Toss together arugula and onion. Fold in watermelon. Gently stir in enough of the vinaigrette to coat. Top with feta cheese. Serve with any extra dressing on the side.
