Frozen Watermelon

This has nothing to do with the Hami Melon. It's purely coincidence that I posted this up after the Hami Melon post :P
Some of you might have noticed my status last weekend regarding I had frozen watermelon. The idea of eating the frozen watermelon originated from my hubby few weeks back since he ate that at his friend's place and he loved it. Last Saturday, I bought a watermelon from TESCO at a great deal of RM 1 per kilo and I freeze half the fruit overnight inside the freezer.
Presenting the frozen watermelon. I left the watermelon aside to defroze a bit as the watermelon flesh was kinda hard when took out from the freezer. Hahaha, it's similar as eating watermelon ice cream. ٩(●̮̮̃•̃)۶ ٩(●̮̮̃•̃)۶ ٩(●̮̮̃•̃)۶ I'm lovin' it :)

Chen,
Environmentalists will tell you to buy directly from the farms, not from Tesco. Read my post to understand why.

You are responsible for global warming!

CK Lam said...

Wow, marvellous idea...from your pic, the texture looks like sherbert watermelon. Will make some space in the freezer this weekend to store the sai gua.

oh can u freeze watermelon!?!
my mum told me that it is not ok to freeze any fruits wor..

Chen said...

day dreamer,
Kakakaka, as long as we know what we are talking about then can liao mah :P

I feel like eating frozen watermelon again. But no more liao, cos we ate up the whole watermelon already :(

yenjai,
Seems like it's time for u to pay your dentist a visit liao :P
LOL

Actually hoh, it's not that cold leh when u eat or bite it :P

seefei,
Hahaha, else u can cute the watermelon into smaller cubes or slices and freeze it :P

Chen said...

babeKL,
If u put it overnight in the freezer, the whole fruit will become frozen. If u put it for few hours, then u can still scoop up the flesh :)

Else, u can cut the watermelon into smaller cubes or sliced it into pieces before putting it in the freezer :)

giddy tigress,
I didn't eat the whole half of the melon one go leh. Else will need to visit the loo frequently liao :P

fibrate,
Go Go Go...
U can opt to cut or slice the watermelon into smaller cutes or slices too before putting inside the freezer.

Chen said...

kheng siong,
If there is a farm nearby my place, then i won't mind buying the watermelon from there. But the nearest farm is so far away, hence not practical to buy it from there. So like it or not, we still need to buy the fruits from the market or supermarket :)

wyn,
If u use honey dew, then u need to cut it into smaller cubes before putting inside the freezer cos honey dew is harder then water melon. I presume it will be hard to scoop the flesh from a frozen honey dew :)

cklam,
If u dun have sufficient space to stor the fruit, u can always cut it into smaller cubes or slices. :)

cbenc12,
Mmmm.. Did your mum give u any reason why it is not ok to freeze fruits ah?

Doreen said...

I have only tried frozen grapes and cherries. Emm...should try this too.

mistipurple said...

u cut your melon so precise like a surgeon, lol!

Chen said...

doreen,
Frozen grape sounds yummy.
Will freeze some grapes the next time I buy grapes :)

Hahhaa, i presume in the next few weeks, some of us here will stuff different type of fruits inside the freezer :P

misti,
Kakkakaka, sampat lah u...
Lidat also u notice? :P

And now i'm eating the crunchy cucumber with hot soya sauce (not the frozen cucumber lah). Hehehehe..

Thinking of what fruit to freeze next :P

someone taught me this (yet to try out though):

- pour some vodka into the lubangs
- freeze the watermelon
- eat when nicely frozen... and mabuk at same time

and yes, still vegetarian!
