Ingredients

  • BRITTLE
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • Pinch of ground cardamom
  • Nonstick vegetable oil spray
  • ¼ cup unsalted, raw pistachios, coarsely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons raw sesame seeds
  • Flaky sea salt (such as Maldon)
  • ASSEMBLY
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon rose water (optional)
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ¾ pound seedless watermelon, rind removed, sliced
  • ¾ pound honeydew, rind removed, seeded, sliced
  • ¾ pound cantaloupe, rind removed, seeded, sliced
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

  1. BRITTLE

  2. Preheat oven to 350°. Bring sugar, cardamom, and ¼ cup water to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring to dissolve sugar; let cardamom syrup cool.

  3. Lightly coat a parchment-lined baking sheet with nonstick spray.

  4. Toss pistachios and sesame seeds in a small bowl with half of syrup and spread out on prepared baking sheet.

  5. Bake, tossing occasionally, until golden, 12–15 minutes; season with salt. Let cool (brittle will harden as it cools), then break into small pieces.

  6. ASSEMBLY

  7. Combine lemon juice, rose water, and remaining cardamom syrup in a small bowl.

  8. Spoon yogurt onto plates.

  9. Top with melon and brittle, drizzle with lemon-cardamom syrup, and season with salt and pepper.
