Ingredients
-
- 800-900 grams of tomatoes (use different types for richer texture and flavor)
- 50 ml olive oil
- 25 ml vinegar
- 30 ml of water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 teaspoons sugar
- 1 bell pepper, chopped
- 1/2 calabrian pepper (adjust according to your preference for spiciness)
- 6 cloves garlic (consider roasting them for a milder, deeper flavor)
- A handful of chopped parsley and coriander
Preparation
- Prepare the Ingredients :
- Wash and cut the tomatoes into medium-sized pieces. If using cherry tomatoes, they can be cut in half to release their juices and sweetness.
- Mix the Flavors :
- In a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, olive oil, vinegar, water, salt, sugar, bell pepper, chili flakes, and garlic.
- Add parsley and cilantro and mix again so that all the flavors combine well.
- Refrigerate :
- Cover the bowl and place in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the salad to cool nicely.
- Finish and Serve :
- Remove the salad from the refrigerator and toss well before serving. Consider adding a squeeze of lemon for a fresh citrus flavor or a handful of toasted walnuts for a delicious crunch.
Additional Tips
- Herbaceous and Fresh : Add other fresh herbs like albahaca or mint for a new layer of freshness.
- Creaminess : Include chunks of fresh cheese, such as mozzarella or feta, to add creaminess and richness.
- Other Vegetables : Enhance your salad with other vegetables such as cucumber, more bell peppers or finely chopped red onion for a greater complexity of flavors.
