Tomato and mint salad

The trick with this salad is to use sweet vine tomatoes of different sizes and colours. One green tomato in the salad will add a touch of pleasant acidity.

Ingredients

1/2 small red onion, cut into very fine slivers

2 cup cherry tomatoes

6 assorted red vine tomatoes

1 cup loosely packed mint leaves

3 tablespoon lemon-infused extra-virgin olive oil

sea salt

Method

1.Soak onion slivers in icy-cold water for 15 minutes, then drain and pat dry.

2.Halve the cherry tomatoes and cut the larger tomatoes into wedges or thick rounds, cutting out cores. Put tomatoes in a shallow bowl or in a deep platter. Scatter with mint and red onion slivers and grind on plenty of pepper.

3.Just before serving, drizzle the salad with the lemon-infused oil and sprinkle with sea salt. Serve immediately.
