TOMATO SALAD

TOMATO SALAD



I grew up with this tomato salad and it grew up with me. It was our favorite dish in the summer and we ate it at least one time a day. Of course there are many different versions of it, I will give you the recipe of the basic one, the first one, the one we used to eat at home every evening of the summer with a freshly cut piece of dark bread and butter. It's as good as it is easy to make.

INGREDIENTS

  • 500 grams of tasty tom tomatoes
  • 2 spring onions
  • salt to taste
  • freshly grinded black pepper
  • 2-3 tablespoons of good olive oil
You will see tiny chopped red and yellow paprika on the picture, that is a small hint of what else you could add to the basic list of ingredients.

METHOD

  • Cut the tomatoes in quarter slices.
  • Chop the spring onion, use also the green parts.
  • Put the tomato and the onion in a bowl, sprinkel some salt and grind some black pepper over it.
  • Season with the olive oil and mix.
  • Eat with a nice piece of bread and butter.
