This salad goes well with most Turkish meals, particularly in summer when tomatoes are at their best. You can arrange the salad any way you like, I have listed the way I prefer to arrange the salad. If you wish to peel the tomatoes and cucumber you may however it is not necessary. You can make this salad one hour before serving. Original recipe comes from a book called "Turkish Cookbook" by Tess Mallos
