This fresh grated tomato salad is an absolute winner all year round, but made with in season home grown tomatoes (high quality shop bought are also acceptable) it'll blow you mind! On its own or park of a BBQ spread are great but we like ours with the Pork & Fennel Ravioli for a hearty winter warmer.
Ingredients
- 4 lage ripe tomatoes
- Half a garlic clove
- Green olives
- Rocket
- Lemon
- Olive oil
- Salt
- Pepper
Method
- Make sure your tomatoes are room temp as they taste way more sweet and delicious. Grab a box grater and grate the tomatoes into a bowl on the cheddar cheese setting (you know the one!).
- Then grate half a clove of garlic and add to the tomatoes followed by a glug of the fancy olive oil, a pinch of salt and a few turns of black pepper.
- Squeeze a handful of olives to break them up before tossing in the bowl of tomato mix followed by the rocket and a squeeze of lemon.
- Once your pasta has finished cooking, drain off any of excess water and gently stir through the tomato mix.
