Background
I love this tomato and spring onion salsa because it’s super simple and ready in five minutes. Also, it goes really well with many types of dishes - grilled/barbecued meat and fish, cold meats, cheeses, nibbles etc. It makes an excellent filling, too, in tacos, sandwiches and wraps. If you blend it together coarsely, it becomes a delicious dip or sauce that you can pour over grilled meat. Perfect for picnics, parties or in your lunchbox as well!
Ingredients
- 2 ripe tomatoes or 1 handful of ripe cherry tomatoes
- 5 spring onions
- 1 garlic, minced (optional)
- 1 handful of Coriander leaves
- ½ green chilli, deseeded
- Juice of ½ lime ( approx)
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 pinch of cumin powder
- 1 pinch or dried oregano
Instructions
- Finely chop the tomatoes, spring onions and coriander, then put them in a serving bowl.
- Mix the oil with the lime juice. Add the garlic, if used. Add cumin powder and oregano, season to taste. Adjust the dressing to your liking.
- Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well. Taste and adjust the dressing to your liking (it might need a drop more lime juice for example).
