This bright and refreshing salad, from has all my favorite ingredients. We like to use Sesame Pita Crisps to scoop up the salad, although lavosh would work, too! Named after a mountain in southeast Anatolia. Sumac is available in Middle Eastern shops or online. It will make a huge difference if you use the freshest, best tomatoes and freshest parsley you can find. Ingredients:
1/4 red onions or 1/4 white onion, finely chopped |
salt, to taste |
1 teaspoon ground sumac |
2 medium tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped |
2/3 cup parsley, finely chopped (not dried) |
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
1 teaspoon pomegranate syrup (also known as pomegranate molasses) |
2 -3 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1/4 cup walnuts, toasted |
Directions:
1. Crush the onion with the salt and sumac. 2. Toss all the ingredients in a medium sized mixing bowl. 3. Arrange on a festive salad platter and garnish with the walnuts. 4. Gavurdagi salad's flavor is enhanced if you put it aside for a few hours before you serve it. |
