Note : Use the back of the melon baller to scrape out the bits and ends and keep in another bowl this helps to get perfect rounds as you go towards the bottom. Use the ends and all the liquid collected to in juices or smoothie by giving it a good blitz.
In a small glass bottle add the juice of the lemon add hot honey salt and mint leaves chopped shake vigorously until combined. Keep this dressing refrigerated until ready to serve.
Assemble the fruits in a pretty bowl and pour the dressing over it and serve immediately to avoid fruits oozing liquid as it sits.
