Mixed Tomato Salad with Smoked Sardines
The humble tomato salad with a twist! Adding sardines will give a smoky depth to the dish – the perfect accompaniment to a summer dinner party.
Ingredients: serves 2
• 500g of tomatoes, different varieties including: yellow, orange and cherry tomatoes
• 4 Fillets of smoked sardines
• 1 pinch of Maldon® Salt
• 4 Tbsp of Extra virgin olive oil
• 1 Tbsp of Sherry vinegar
• 1 Shallot
Method:
After washing and drying the tomatoes, chop each variety in a different way so they look more appealing (thicker cuts/thinner cuts), then simply season them with Maldon Salt and a dash of oil. Slice the shallot onion in to rings and sprinkle over the tomatoes.
For this dish, the salad will be accompanied by smoked sardines, but it could also be seasoned with fresh herbs and served with a range of different ingredients. We are especially fond of combining tomatoes with tinned fish, whether oily, salted or smoked to give a underlying depth in flavour.
