STRAWBERRY, MELON & GINGER SUNDAES

Steps:

• Gently mix the melon and strawberries together in a large bowl with a spoon or your hands, then pile half into four glass tumblers. Sprinkle with half the biscuit crumbs.
• Stir the chopped ginger and syrup into the yogurt and spoon into the tumblers. Pile the rest of the fruit on top, then scatter with the remaining crumbs.
• Sprinkle a teaspoon of muscovado sugar on top of each dessert and chill until ready to serve (up to 2 hours ahead) - the sugar will gradually melt to give a yummy toffee flavour.
• Take out of the fridge about 15 minutes before serving, so they are not too chilled.

MELON AND GINGER SOUP

Steps:

• Cut the whole melon into 8 wedges and the half into 4, and set aside two of the wedges. Remove the remaining melon from the rinds, and chop coarsely. Puree until smooth in a blender or a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Transfer to a bowl and whisk in the lime zest and 1 tablespoon of the lime juice, the salt, buttermilk, 1 teaspoon of the ginger juice, and the agave syrup. Taste and add the remaining ginger juice if desired. Cut the remaining wedges of melon into very small dice and place in a separate bowl. Chill the soup and diced melon for at least 1 hour.
• Just before serving, toss the diced melon with the mint and remaining lime juice. Ladle the soup into bowls, top with the melon and mint, and serve.

MELON & GINGER SHARBAT

Steps:

• Blend the melon, ginger, orange juice and sugar together until smooth - you may need to do this in batches. Add the lemon juice if the orange isn't very tart. Add a pinch of salt and pepper, if you like, and adjust the sugar to taste. Serve in glasses over lots of ice.

MELON WITH ORANGE-GINGER SYRUP

• Fill a large bowl with ice and water; set aside. Place the orange juice, sugar, and ginger in a small saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil. Let simmer, stirring occasionally, until sugar has dissolved and syrup has thickened, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat; strain syrup into a clean bowl; add the Cointreau; stir to combine. Set bowl in ice bath, or chill in refrigerator, until syrup is cold.
• Using different sizes of melon ballers, cut balls from the honeydew and canary melons. Place balls in a medium bowl; add 1/2 cup cold syrup and orange zest. Toss to combine.
