TOMATO SALAD WITH CUCUMBER AND GINGER

Tomato Salad With Cucumber and Ginger image

The classic combination of tomatoes and cucumbers gets new life here from a lively dressing of lime zest and juice, fish sauce and serrano chile inspired by Thai papaya salad. It's a study in contrasts: Bracing on its own, the salty-spicy vinaigrette is mellowed by fresh summer tomatoes and cucumbers. Large pieces of fresh ginger add a punch of spice without the heat, while cilantro and basil serve as fresh, cooling elements. Enjoy with red curry chicken, coconut rice and a nice crisp beer.

Ingredients

3 Persian cucumbers
Kosher salt
3 teaspoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lime zest plus 3 tablespoons juice (from 2 limes)
4 teaspoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon coconut oil or canola oil
1 tablespoon very thinly sliced green serrano chile (about 1/2 large chile)
1 garlic clove, finely grated
12 ounces multicolored cherry tomatoes and small tomatoes, halved or quartered, depending on size
1/2 cup torn fresh basil
1/2 cup small sprigs cilantro
1/4 small red onion, very thinly sliced
1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and cut into matchsticks
1/4 cup roasted salted peanuts, coarsely chopped

Steps:

Create stripes on the exterior of the cucumbers by running the tines of a fork along the length of the skin. Halve the cucumbers lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. Transfer to a colander and toss with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon sugar.
Meanwhile, make the dressing: In a large bowl, whisk together the lime zest and juice, fish sauce, coconut oil, chile, garlic and the remaining 2 teaspoons sugar.
Just before serving, add the tomatoes, basil, cilantro, red onion, ginger, cucumbers and half the nuts to the dressing; toss to coat. Transfer to a bowl or platter, top with remaining nuts and serve immediately.

Tips:

Choose the freshest vegetables: Cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions should be ripe and firm. Overripe vegetables will make the salad watery and less flavorful.
Slice the vegetables thinly: This will help them absorb the dressing better and make the salad more refreshing.
Use a sharp knife: A dull knife will crush the vegetables and make them less appealing.
Don't overdress the salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way. Too much dressing will make the salad soggy and oily.
Chill the salad before serving: This will help the flavors meld together and make the salad even more refreshing.

Conclusion:

This Asian cucumber, tomato, and onion salad is a healthy, refreshing, and flavorful dish that is perfect for a summer meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a light and healthy salad, give this one a try!
