Ingredients for 2–3 people:
4–5 ripe, medium-sized tomatoes,
1 small green bell pepper (preferably mild) ,
2–3 sprigs fresh parsley,
1–2 cloves garlic,
4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil,
2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice or apple cider vinegar,
1 tsp Dijon mustard (optional for more depth of flavor),
1 tsp salt (to taste),
½ tsp freshly ground black pepper,
1 pinch paprika powder (sweet or hot – according to preference).
Preparation:
Prepare the tomatoes:
Wash the tomatoes thoroughly and cut them into slices about 0.5–1 cm thick. Arrange them in a fan shape on a deep serving plate.
Finely chop the bell pepper and herbs:
Remove the seeds from the green bell pepper and dice it very finely. Finely chop the fresh parsley. The finer the chop, the better the aroma will be distributed in the sauce later.
Crush the garlic:
Peel the garlic cloves and crush them with a garlic press or chop them very finely.
Prepare the dressing:
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and lemon juice or vinegar. Add the garlic, paprika, parsley, salt, pepper, and paprika powder. Optionally, stir in a teaspoon of mustard. Mix everything thoroughly until you have a robust, aromatic herb vinaigrette.
Marinate the salad:
Generously pour the prepared vinaigrette over the tomato slices. Make sure the dressing gets between the tomatoes.
