Turkish Tomato and Onion Salad

 


I saw this recipe on Instagram (@fooddiariesbyhumera) and decided to try it. It was a delicious change.

2 tomatoes thinly sliced

2 red onions thinly sliced

handful of fresh parsley (you can use chives, tarragon or basil as a substitute)

1/2 tsp salt

1 tbs sumac

Juice of half a lemon

2 tbs olive oil

1 tbs pomegranate molasses (you can use maple syrup and lemon as a substitute)

Mix all ingredients together and rest for 5-10 minutes. I found that after a day, it had a less strong onion-like taste, more like a pickle, if you prefer that.

That is a great dish. I will try it. I've been using raw honey for a sweetener rather than syrup.

I love red onions, but can’t eat too much of it. Looks colorful, though.
