Step 1

Bring a pan of salted water to the boil. Preheat a griddle pan.

Step 2

Cook the Mevalia Fusilli for 9 minutes, rinse and drain well.

Step 3

Lightly oil the melon slices and sear on the hot grill for 1-2 minutes each side until grill marks appear, place on a plate, cut into bite-sized pieces and allow to cool. 

Step 4

In a large salad bowl, whisk the olive oil, vinegar, honey, salt, pepper, Mevalia LP Fusilli, melon, avocado, red cabbage, basil and toss to coat, serve immediately or chill for up to 2 days. 

Recipe tips; if you are making the salad to last for a few days, add the avocado on the day of eating as it will discolour if prepared too soon.
