1. 1.

   Cut the watermelon in half and slice into 1 cm thick rounds, then cut 12 triangles from each round; use the remaining pieces elsewhere.

   Place the watermelon cubes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Slice the Scamorza into rounds and place them on top of the watermelon pieces. Sprinkle chopped pistachios over the cheese. Bake under a hot grill in the oven for 6–8 minutes until golden brown.
