Roasted watermelon, oregano vinaigrette Recipe

An hour in advance cut 1/2 watermelon in 3 cm slices, then use a serving ring to make 8 cm discs. Sprinkle some salt on them and drain on kitchen paper. Reserve the rest of the melon.

Blanche 2 Roma tomatoes 20 secs in boiling water, cool under cold water and peel.

Them quarter and separate the flesh, press the rest trough a sieve and mix in the blender the juices with some watermelon and the juice of 1/2 lemon. 

Add some lemon zest, olive oil, salt, pepper and whisk into a dressing.

Finally add a tbsp small oregano leaves.

Then cut the tomato flesh into small cubes.

By then the watermelon discs are drained. Fry them in 1 tbsp olive oil in a hot pan till lightly blackened.

Cool in the fridge.

Just before serving fry or grill ciabatta slices, rub with a garlic clove.

Serve the chilled watermelon on a bed of watercress (which I did not have, so used spinach). 

Cover with 80 g crumbled feta cheese

Spoon tomato on the ciabatta and ass some oregano leaves.

Finish with the dressing
