Watermelon, Feta and Black Olive Salad

    1 small red onion
    2 to 4 limes, depending on juiciness
    3 1/2 pounds sweet, ripe watermelon
    9 ounces feta cheese
    Bunch of fresh flat-leaf parsley
    Bunch of fresh mint, chopped
    3 to 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
    4 ounces (1/2 cup) black olives
    Black pepper, freshly ground

  Peel and halve the red onion and cut it into very fine half-moons.
 Put the pieces in a small bowl to steep with the lime juice. (If 2
 limes are not enough, add more.)
  Remove the peel and seeds from the watermelon and cut into 1 1/4
 inch chunks. Cut the feta into similar-size pieces and put it with
 the melon in a large, wide, shallow bowl. Tear off leaves of parsley
 so they can be used like a salad leaf, rather than a garnish, and add
 to the bowl along with the chopped mint.
  Tip the onions and juice over the salad, add the oil and olives and
 gently hand toss. Add a grinding of black pepper and taste to see
 whether the dressing needs more lime.
