This traditional salad is served throughout Albania. It is often served as first course. Typically this salad has equal proportions of tomato and cucumber. The rest of the ingredients are stictly added based on personal preference. I got this recipe from some missionaries that have lived in Albania for a long time. They made a cookbook with other missionaries called From bugs to beans. Ingredients:
2 -3 tomatoes, diced |
1 cucumber, sliced and quartered |
1 small onion, thinly sliced |
1 green pepper, diced |
1/8 cup olive oil |
1/2 cup feta cheese |
1/2 cup kalamata olive |
Directions:
1. Combine tomatoes, cucumber, onion, and peppers in a mixing bowl and toss.
2. Drizzle the olive oil over the salad and season with salt to taste. Garnish with olives and cheese.
