Make a MEZE!

Theo’s tip: ‘If you like, a few shavings of Kefalotyri cheese won’t hurt but tomatoes are very self-conscious and would hate to feel overdressed!’

RAINBOW TOMATO SALAD

Ouranio toxo salada me tomades

There is almost nothing as wonderful and satisfying to eat as a naturally grown tomato. Buy tomatoes in season and never store them in your fridge. I always include a few of the plum variety in this salad to ensure sweetness and then simply anoint them with a pomegranate molasses and white balsamic dressing to complement their ripe flesh. Served flat on a plate, rather than elbowing each other in a bowl, this recipe treats tomatoes with the respect they deserve.
