Watermelon Mousse

Watermelons are one of the favorite fruits, here it is available all through the year. We are fortunate in Singapore we get to find logo.jpgall the different varieties of fruits from all over the world. We love all the different kind of melons available and we rarely blend it into juice or any desserts. I am still wondering how to select sweet melons which we are still naive at. Most of the times we buy melons its ends up semi sweet or at times tasteless then find its way to the blender to blend it for a juice. Luckily for Bee who is hosting the AFAM Watermelon this time when my h bought the melon was super sweet. Honestly i had half mind to use it blend it to any recipe. I just used one quarter of the melon the remaining we relished the fresh fruits, but was extremely satisfied with the end result. This is my contribution to this month’s AFAM for watermelon hosted by Bee which is initiated by Maheswari
