The combination of juicy tomatoes and crisp, sweet-and-sour apples creates a truly fresh and interesting flavor! I’ve selected a simple and delicious recipe for this salad for you.
Recipe
Ingredients (serves 2):
tomatoes — 2;
apple — 1;
onion — ½ (you can use green onion for a milder taste);
arugula or other herbs (parsley, dill, basil) — to taste;
salt — to taste.
For the dressing:
plain yogurt — 125 g;
mustard — ½ tsp;
lemon juice — 1 tbsp;
salt — to taste.
Instructions:
Slice the red onion into thin half-rings and marinate for 20–30 minutes in a mixture of a pinch of salt, sugar, and a splash of vinegar; this removes the harsh sharpness.
Peel the apple (if the skin is tough) and remove the core. Cut into small pieces and immediately drizzle with the juice of half a lemon to prevent browning.
Cut the tomatoes into pieces, removing the excess pulp and seeds first so the salad doesn't become too watery.
Place the ingredients in a salad bowl and add salt.
Mix the dressing ingredients, add a little salt, and pour over the salad. Sprinkle with chopped herbs before serving. A few tips:
Choose sweet-and-sour apple varieties for the salad (such as Golden Delicious or Granny Smith)—they balance the juiciness of the tomatoes best.
If you don't like onion, you can leave it out or substitute it with a little green onion.
It’s great to add other ingredients to this salad: cucumber (for extra juiciness), celery (for crunch), cheese (feta or a hard cheese—this creates an interesting texture contrast), nuts, or raisins.
Instead of a yogurt dressing, you can use a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, a pinch of sugar, and spices.
Give it a try! This salad makes a perfect light snack or a side dish for meat or fish. We served it with roasted chicken.
