Ingredients:

  • 4 small or 2 large honeydew melons (kharbooja)
  • 1/2 cup strained fresh orange juice

  • If using small melons, slice off the top of each as a lid, if using large melons, cut them into half.
  • Cut the edges into zigzag pattern. Cut a thin slice off the bottom so that the melon stands upright without tipping. (Take care not to cut through the shell).
