Instructions

Step 1

Using your hands, massage the coarse sea salt into the watermelon rind in a large bowl. Leave for 30 minutes to let the salt draw out the moisture from the rind. Then rinse the rind under cold water, drain and gently squeeze the rind to remove any excess water.

Step 2

Combine all of the remaining with the rind and mix thoroughly. I use my hands with plastic gloves to make sure every centimetre of the rind is covered in the marinade. I recommend putting this in a glass jar or container since the chilli powder and garlic can permeate plastic forever. This can keep in the fridge for several weeks.
