For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the watermelon cubes briefly before adding them to the salad. If you don't have baby cucumbers, you can use a regular cucumber, just be sure to peel it and remove the seeds. A pinch of red pepper flakes can add a subtle kick to this refreshing salad. This salad is best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a day. Be aware that the watermelon may release some liquid.

May 24, 2025I found that the red onion was still a bit strong even after marinating, so next time I will soak it in ice water for a few minutes first.
