Muskmelon Salad | Kharbuja Salad

by Jiya Jesh · Updated on June 7, 2020 Salads/Raita

Muskmelon salad / kharbuja salad recipe – refreshing Indian style salad using muskmelon ( or cantaloupe ). This light salad has a mix of tangy, sweet and spicy flavors and easy to make in minutes. During hot summer days, the only thing I look forward to is the array of fruits that are in season like melons and mangoes.

While watermelon is one of my favorite, I also love to eat muskmelons, which unlike watermelons have a unique taste. Usually, I prepare muskmelon juice or just eat melon cubes sprinkled with sugar.
