Bacon Musk Melon Salad

My sister and I have been holed up in my hostel room for more than a month now. Both passionate foodies and cooks, we began suffering from kitchen withdrawal around the second week. Symptoms include loitering longingly at supermarkets, ranting incoherently about stoves, pots and pans and spices and vacant stares punctuated with sighs of utter misery. So imagine how deliriously overjoyed we were when a friend invited us over to cook in his kitchen. In Godrej Nature’s Basket, the fresh and fragrant musk melon helped me to decide on this salad.
