Nutritional values

Watermelon is rich in potassium, which regulates the water balance in our body. It also contains lycopene, an antioxidant that protects our cells from free radicals and thus reduces the risk of cancer. The meat of the crayfish is particularly rich in protein. 

This salad with Asian flavors is a delicious lunch. Serve with a bowl of miso soup as a starter for a more complete meal.
