Tomato salad

Tomatoes are a great addition to almost any salad but when in season they deserve to be the star of the show. Make sure your tomatoes are at room temperature for maximum flavour.

This tomato salad works perfectly with most varieties and with any size or colour, so is ideal if you have a glut in the garden.

Each side serving provides 93 kcal, 1.2g protein, 4.8g carbohydrate (of which 4.6g sugars), 7.1g fat (of which 1g saturates), 1.9g fibre and 0.01g salt.

Ingredients

  • 300驳/10陆辞锄 tomatoes, sliced/chopped (or use a mixture of sizes and colours for a pretty finish)
  • 1 small garlic clove, finely grated
  • 2 tsp sherry vinegar
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 8 large leaves fresh basil (approx. 5g/鈪沷z)
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method

  1. Place the tomatoes in a mixing bowl. Season well with salt and pepper and stir in the finely grated garlic, vinegar and extra virgin oil. Leave to sit for 10 minutes at room temperature.

  2. Tear the basil leaves over the tomatoes and stir in. Tip onto your serving dish along with any of the delicious juices and serve.

Recipe Tips

If using the same type of tomato, I like to cut them all the same way either in chunks or slices, but if using a mix it works well to cut some into slices and some into wedges to produce an attractive assortment of shapes.
