Simple salads are sometimes the most magical. When you get good quality tomatoes, there really is nothing better. This salad, paired with a beautifully cooked piece of fish, is just perfection.

The Recipe

Step 1

Slice the tomatoes into equal sizes. I like to use a mix of colours and sizes of tomatoes as they provide a slightly different texture and flavour - and also for aesthetic reasons.

Slice the onion into super fine strips.

Step 2

Mix the ingredients for the dressing together in a small bowl.

In a larger bowl add all the ingredients with a good amount of salt and pepper - tomatoes need a good amount of salt, as it really draws out the sweetness in them. Pour in the dressing and mix well.

Top with an extra sprinkle of sumac.
