It’s best if made several hours before serving, to
get the full curry flavor. It’s been a real hit at
potlucks. Yield: serves 4 to 6.

* A honeydew ball is a ball of honeydew melon that is
scooped out of the flesh of the melon with a “balling
spoon” or “melon baller.” About 1 1/3 cups of
conchiglie will make about three cups of cooked
macaroni.

: Difficulty: easy.
: Time: 25 minutes (includes time to cook macaroni
and make melon balls.) : Precision: no need to
measure. :
