This vibrant green tomato and honeydew melon salad is a refreshing vegan dish that offers a sophisticated balance of flavours. By using ripe green tomato varieties rather than unripe fruit, you achieve a pleasant tanginess that perfectly complements the honeyed sweetness of the melon. The addition of toasted cumin and fresh jalapeño provides a subtle warmth, while fresh coriander adds a bright, herbal finish to every bite.
Ideal for a light summer lunch or as a unique side dish for a barbecue, this salad is as nutritious as it is beautiful. The toasted pumpkin seeds provide a satisfying crunch and a boost of healthy fats, making it a wonderful plant-based option for those seeking something different from a standard garden salad. Serve it immediately to enjoy the contrast between the crisp seeds and the juicy fruit.
