Use a sharp knife and cutting board to cut the watermelon into a thick wedge, approximately 1 to 1.5 inches in thickness.
Slice the wedge into thin, fry-shaped strips about 1/4 inch wide, keeping the slices uniform for even texture. Arrange the strips on a plate or serving dish.
Optional: lightly sprinkle with a finishing salt or a dash of chili powder for flavor. Serve immediately to enjoy the juicy contrast with the crisp edges.
Ensure the slices are well separated on the dish, displaying the vibrant red flesh and the slightly firm texture of the cut edges.
