Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Melons

Cut the Candew and Ambrosia melons in half and scoop out the seeds. Slice the flesh into bite-sized wedges and arrange on a serving platter.

2

Make the Jaew Sauce

In a small bowl, combine the Thai chili powder, fish sauce, lime juice, and palm sugar. Mix well until the sugar is dissolved.

3

Toast the Shallots

Thinly slice the shallots. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until golden brown and crispy. Remove from heat and drain on paper towels.

4

Assemble the Dish

Drizzle the Jaew sauce over the melon wedges. Add dollops of Straus yogurt on top, sprinkle with toasted shallots, and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
