Watermelon, melon, mango, cucumber, cherry tomato, red onion, feta, mint, and basil salad

This is fantastically fresh and lively and goes great with slow-cooked barbecue, or smoked meats. The feta provides a contrasting texture and saltiness to the sweet fruit.

The recipe is the name of it really.

1. Cube some ripe watermelon and some cantaloupe or orange honey-dew
2. Likewise some mango
3. Peel, deseed, and chop a cucumber
4. Half some cherry tomatoes
5. Dice or crumble some feta (I know, I used one of those tubs of cubes... it's really not the best, but it was in the fridge. I'd like to blame my wife but I do all the grocery shopping so I must have been feeling exceptionally lazy)
6. Finely slice a small red onion
7. Finely chop a fistful of mint and an equal amount of basil
8. Drizzle over some olive oil, a restrained splash of fresh lemon juice, salt (not too much because of the feta) and freshly ground black pepper

You can prepare this up to a couple of hours in advance. Much longer than that and the mango, in particular, starts to lose its texture and is a lot less pleasant.
