Shopska Salad
HB-2055 · Hand-built original
Main ingredient: cucumber
Serving count not stated for this recipe, so quantities are shown as written.
Ingredients
- 1 large cucumber, sliced into half-moons
- 3 cups chopped ripe tomatoes (about 4 medium tomatoes)
- 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green pepper, chopped
- 1 tsp fine salt
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/3 cup crumbled or finely grated feta-style white brined cheese (sirene if available)
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tbsp red wine vinegar (optional)
Method
- Put the tomatoes, cucumber, green pepper, and red onion in a large salad bowl.
- Sprinkle with the salt and toss gently. Leave for 5 minutes so the tomatoes release a little juice.
- Drizzle over the olive oil and the vinegar if using, and toss once more.
- Pile the cheese generously over the top of the salad rather than mixing it through, and scatter with the parsley.
- Serve at once, with crusty bread to mop up the juices.
