Watermelon Snack
From Food Network Kitchens
These are the ideal summer self serve snack. The spice and kick of the curry and cayenne are the perfect contrast to the refreshing taste of the melon and mint.

1 cup low fat plain yogurt
1 1/2 pound piece red or yellow seedless watermelon with rind
1 lime, cut into wedges
1/2 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
Curry powder
Cayenne pepper

Line a small sieve with a coffee filter. Put the yogurt in it, set it over a bowl, and refrigerate 2 hours. Discard the expressed liquid and put yogurt in a small serving bowl.

Trim the rind off the watermelon and cut the fruit into pieces a couple inches long and about 1/2-inch square. Arrange on a platter with the limes. Put the mint, curry, and cayenne, in 3 small bowls.

Squeeze lime on the watermelon. Dip melon into the yogurt, then into a little curry and as much cayenne as you like and finish with the mint. Nibble on.
