A very simple, meditteranean-inspired salad with fresh tomatoes, fragrant herbs, rich olives and sharp dressing
No cooking involved
6 large, ripe tomatoes, sliced
24 black olives, stones removed, roughly chopped
16 fresh basil leaves, roughly torn
Dressing
Juice of 1 lemon
3 Tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1
Arrange the tomato slices onto a large serving platter (I lay them out and overlap them)
2
Scatter the olives and basil over the tomatoes
3
Combine the dressing ingredients, taste and adjust the seasoning to suit your preference
4
Pour the dressing over the salad right before serving, or simply place it onto the table in a small jug so your guests can serve their own dressing
