Salsa is considered a condiment
This is one way to use up leftover grilled watermelon.
Wait, people grill watermelon?
Grilled Watermelon Salsa
- 2 cups grilled watermelon diced small
- 1 green bell pepper diced small
- 1 small red onion diced fine
- 1 large tomato diced small
- 2 jalapenos diced fine
- 2 tbsp basil cut into fine ribbons
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Mix everything together and season with salt and pepper. Let refrigerate for two hours before serving.
For those who are wondering here is how to grill watermelon: Slice melon into 1 1/2″ thick wedges. Discard rind. Rub sea salt into fruit and let stand over a rack in the sink for an hour. Rinse off fruit and pat dry. Drizzle with olive oil and grill over direct heat until slightly charred, about five minutes per side.

Oooooh this is just wonderful. I have not grilled watermelon, but what a great idea. This has been a very good melon year so far…I have eaten watermelon, made cocktails and used in salads as is, but grilling is a mighty fine idea. Lovely.
I’ve seen watermelon grilled but never salted beforehand. I bet your way results in a crispier, more flavorful melon, Greg. Thanks for the tip.
