Water Melon Salad

• 1 water melon – or half if a whole one seems much too large
• 1 large Spanish onion
• juice of ½–1

Peel, thinly slice and remove the pips from the water melon. Slice the onion in very thin rings and mix with the water melon slices in a fairly deep salad bowl. Cover with a plate and leave for half an hour. Mix up a dressing of lemon juice and twice as much olive oil well seasoned with salt and black pepper. Pour this over the melon and onion, sprinkle with paprika and serve.
