Ingredients:
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon minced crystallized ginger
1/2 teaspoon grated fresh lime zest
4 cups melon balls ( I like to mix honeydew and cantaloupe)
4 sprigs fresh mint ( garnish)
Directions:
In small saucepan, combine juice, water, ginger and zest. Set pan over medium-high heat and bring to boil. Boil 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture reduces to 2 tablespoons.
Strain mixture though fine sieve to remove zest. (I’m not sure this step is really needed).
Place melon in bowl, toss with ginger-lime mixture. Let sit for 15 minutes. You can drain the sauce or serve it with the melon.
Garnish with mint (optional).
