Description

Enjoy a refreshing and flavorful twist on traditional fries with these juicy Watermelon Fries, served with a creamy, tangy Lime Crema sauce. A perfect sweet and savory snack or appetizer that’s ready in just 10 minutes!


Ingredients

– 1 small watermelon, cut into 1/2-inch thick fry-shaped pieces

– 1/2 cup sour cream

– 2 tbsp fresh lime juice

– 1 tsp lime zest

– 1/4 tsp salt


Instructions

1. 1. Cut the watermelon into 1/2-inch thick fry-shaped pieces.

2. 2. In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, lime juice, lime zest, and salt. Mix well to make the Lime Crema sauce.

3. 3. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add the watermelon fries in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until lightly browned and crispy.

4. 4. Transfer the cooked watermelon fries to a paper towel-lined plate.

5. 5. Serve the warm watermelon fries immediately, drizzled with the Lime Crema sauce.

Notes

For best results, pat the watermelon fries dry with paper towels before cooking to help them crisp up. You can also bake the fries at 400°F for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, for a healthier option.
