PREP: 5 minutes
SERVINGS: 4-6

INGREDIENTS:
  • 3-4 beefsteak tomatoes, or 8 plum tomatoes
  • 1 red onion
  • 1 green chili pepper
  • 4 teaspoons fresh mint
  • 2 cloves fresh garlic
  • 120 ml olive oil (or to taste)
  • 4-6 tbsp lemon juice (or to taste)
  • 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)
Optional:
  • 1 English cucumber
METHOD:
  1. Dice tomatoes, onion, cucumber (if using)
  2. Mince chili pepper, mint, garlic
  3. Mix everything together and serve!
NOTES:
Due to the romaine lettuce recall, I pulled this one out. The cookbook is called Olives, Lemons & Za'atar: The Best Middle Eastern Home Cooking, and is one of my faves. In addition to having great recipes, it's beautiful and enjoyable to read.

I've never made the recipe with green chili, and only with a little olive oil. Cucumber is a great addition. Mint is the thing I wouldn't cut!

And of course the recipe easily reduces to feed a single person living alone (me :P).
