Tomato And Onion Salad With Tahini Dressing Food

TAHINI SALAD

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix all the ingredients together. The tahini mixture will become watery, then it will shrink, and then again it will become a bit loose while you mix. If your tahini dressing is too thick, add a little bit of cold water and mix again. Adjust ingredients to your liking.
• Chop the tomatoes and the cucumber into cubes. Add the tahini dressing and mix the salad.
• Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.

TOMATO & ONION SALAD

Steps:

• Pour boiling water over the onion and leave for 10 mins.
• Arrange the tomatoes and cucumber (if using) on a plate, then scatter over the drained onions.
• Mix the chilli and garlic with the vinegar and sugar, then season with salt. Drizzle over the salad just before serving.
• This can be prepared and chilled up to 1 hr ahead, but dress just before serving.

MEDITERRANEAN TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• In a large salad or mixing bowl, add the tomatoes, onions, fresh herbs and garlic.
• Add sumac, kosher salt and a generous sprinkle of freshly ground pepper. Add lemon juice, white wine vinegar and extra virgin olive oil. Toss to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning to your liking.
• Transfer to a serving platter or bowl. Top with large pieces of quality feta cheese (optional). Enjoy!

CUCUMBER TOMATO TAHINI SALAD

Steps:

• For the dressing, make my lime tahini sauce recipe by blending tahini paste, lime juice, water, kosher salt together, then stir in a good cup of parsley. You can do this one night ahead of time and save it covered in the fridge. (If the tahini sauce becomes thicker as it sits in the fridge, you can stir in more lime juice or water to loosen it).
• To make the salad, in a medium mixing bowl, combine the tahini sauce with the diced cucumbers, tomatoes, and jalapeno. Add the Aleppo-style pepper, if using. Mix well. Taste and add salt to your liking. And if needed, add more lime juice.

TOMATO AND ONION SALAD WITH TAHINI DRESSING

Steps:

• Soak onion in salted cold water while preparing other ingredients, about 30 minutes. Whisk or blend together garlic, tahini and cumin, and add lemon juice; the mixture will become very thick. Thin with hot water, a tablespoon at a time, just so the mixture can be spooned. (It will thin further when tossed with tomatoes.) Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Toss onion, tomatoes and parsley with dressing. Taste, adjust the seasonings and serve.

Add the cumin, then salt and pepper (or Aleppo pepper) to taste. Thin out with water if the dressing is too thick to pour. Drizzle over the sliced tomatoes, sprinkle on the parsley and serve.

LENTIL SALAD WITH TAHINI DRESSING

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large non-stick wok. Add the sweet potato and fry for 5 mins, stirring frequently until it starts to soften. If it starts to brown too quickly, put a lid on the pan. Add the carrot, courgette, onion, cumin and ginger, then cook over a high heat, stirring frequently, until the veg is tender and a little charred. Stir in the seeds towards the end so they cook for a couple of mins. Remove from the heat and add the lentils, bouillon powder, lemon zest, mint and parsley.
• Meanwhile, stir the tahini with the garlic, yogurt and 1 tbsp water to make a dressing. Spoon the lentil salad into bowls and top with the dressing and paprika, if using. If you're following our Healthy Diet Plan, save two portions stored in containers and chill until ready to eat.
