| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Using a cleaver or large, sharp knife, cut the melon in half crosswise. Scoop out most of the melon pulp with a large spoon, leaving a shell of pulp about ½ inch thick inside each half.
|
2. Carefully remove and discard all the watermelon seeds. If desired, cut a design in the outer rind with a sharp knife or scallop the top edges of each melon half.
|
3. Cut the melon pulp into 1-inch cubes or, with a melon baller, shape it into balls. In a large bowl, combine the melon cubes or balls with the litchis, loquats and kumquats.
|
4. Spoon the fruit into the two melon shells, dividing the fruit evenly between them. Chill thoroughly before serving.
|
NOTE: Other fruits-such as cantaloupe or honeydew melon balls, orange sections or apple wedges-may be added to the mixture in the melon shells, or substituted for the fruits listed above if these are not readily available.
