Recipe by @piastromexicankitchen.

Ingredients

  • 250g cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 2 tsp of olive oil
  • ½ small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 tsp cider vinegar
  • 250g mix tomatoes, cut randomly
  • 1 pouch of Merchant Gourmet Puy Lentils
  • 50g of mixed soft herbs (we love coriander, parsley and mint, but dill and basil also work well)
  • Salt and pepper
  • For the dressing:

  • 3 sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 3 tsp sun-dried tomato oil
  • 1 tsp of chipotle chilli flakes 
  • 1 tsp cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp caster sugar
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 130°C. Place the tomatoes skin-side down on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment. Drizzle over the olive oil and sprinkle with some salt. Roast for 90 mins, or until semi-dried. Allow to cool slightly.
  2. Meanwhile, place the red onion in a small bowl, pour over the vinegar and two teaspoons of warm water and sprinkle with the salt. Leave for a few minutes to soften the onion.
  3. Make the dressing by mixing all the ingredients, add oil or vinegar according to your taste.
  4. Drain the onions and mix them with the rest of the ingredients, including the dressing, and arrange them in a serving plate. Let the salad rest for 30 minutes before serving, taste again and adjust seasoning and dressing if needed.
