This is a beautiful way to serve fresh fruit at any gathering -- and is deceivingly simple to create!聽
Ingredients
1 Watermelon
Variety of other fruits (your choice!)
Directions
Rinse the outside of the watermelon and pat dry.
Using a utility knife, slice a large watermelon wedge out of the upper right and the upper left sides (leave a thick arch attached in between the wedges to act as the basket handle).聽
Remove the edible flesh from the wedges to use later in the basket, and discard the wedge rinds.
Also remove the watermelon flesh from beneath the basket handle with your knife.
[Optional] If desired, you can add more detail to your basket with a paring knife...here are a few examples that look nice...I chose the triangle design.
Wash and slice other fruits.
Fill watermelon basket with the assorted fruit slices.
Cover with cling wrap and place in refrigerator until ready to serve.
