Method
Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.
Step 1
Put the sliced shallot in a small bowl of ice water and set aside. Whisk together the sumac, olive oil, lime juice and some seasoning.
Step 2
Chop half the mint. Drain the shallots well and put in a large bowl with the watermelon, most of the feta and the chopped mint. Mix the olive oil, lime juice and sumac before mixing with the salad. Coat well, taking care not to break up the feta.
Step 3
Transfer to a serving platter and scatter over the remaining feta and mint. Sprinkle with a pinch more sumac and serve with the toasted sourdough.
