> What is the Hot Melon Salad? Sounds interesting!

I got the recipe off FoodTV.com; it's from "Good Eats." Here it is, but I
have to say that it wasn't my favorite part of the meal:

Good Eats Hot Melon Salad

1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small red onion, sliced into thin rounds
16 ounces medium-diced melon, approximately 2 cups
1 tablespoon fresh basil, cut into chiffonade
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
2 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
1 tablespoon pine nuts, toasted

Heat a large saute pan or wok over high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the
olive oil, followed by the onion, and saute for 1 to 2 minutes, moving the
pan continually. Add the melon and saute for another 1 to 2 minutes or until
the melon starts to take on color. Add the basil, salt, and pepper and
continue to cook for another minute. Add the vinegar to the pan and toss to
combine. Pour mixture onto a serving platter, sprinkle with the cheese and
pine nuts, and serve immediately.
