Watermelons in great variety are one of the most refreshing fruits. Serve them well chilled, in combination with other fruits and vegetables, for example – radishes. And why not? Use other herbs if you like – fresh dill, cilantro. Everyone seems to have different tastes about the proper seasoning.

Ingredients
- 1/2 Chinese radish (Daikon), peeled and sliced thinly
- 1/4 small watermelon, peeled and sliced thinly
- 1 tsp lemon juice

Instructions
