Watermelon Fries

These look almost like fries from the fryer, but they are juicy, cool, and sweet. You only need a watermelon, a cutting board, and a knife. You can eat them plain or sprinkle with coconut flakes, drizzle with lemon juice, or make a yogurt-honey dip. You can share these fries with your friends or family. And if someone asks where you got the idea, you can say: 'From my Grubenfuchs app!' and maybe they'll discover even more great ideas in it.

What you'll need

  • A watermelon
  • Cutting board and knife
  • Wavy cutter
  • Bowl

How it works

  1. Place the watermelon on a cutting board. Take a knife or a wavy cutter. If you're unsure, ask an adult for help.

  2. Cut about 2–3 cm thick round slices from the melon.

  3. Lay the slice flat and cut it into long, even sticks. The wavy cutter will give them a wavy shape.

  4. Place the watermelon fries on a plate or in a bowl. You can eat them plain or try different 'fries seasonings'. Coconut flakes, lemon juice, lime juice, or a dip made from yogurt and honey.
