Ingredients
  • 100 grams of assorted cherry tomatoes
  • 100 grams of Manzanilla olives
  • 15 grams of Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 4 or 5 fresh cilantro leaves
  • Lime zest to taste
  • 1 Garlic clove Spring Violet
  • Salt flower
Step by step
  1. We placed the olives in a large bowl.

  2. We cut the cherry tomatoes in half and add them to the bowl of olives, along with the extra virgin olive oil and grated lime.

  3. We chop the garlic clove and the cilantro.

    We also add it to the bowl and stir to mix everything well.

  4. We place it in a serving bowl, add a little fleur de sel and drizzle with olive oil.

We can use different types of olives.

If we also add balsamic vinegar from Modena to the dressing, we can enhance the flavor of the salad.

We can reduce the amount of chopped garlic to a quarter of a finely chopped clove, since raw garlic will always have a stronger flavor.

It is very important to use a good extra virgin olive oil, as it will make all the difference in the finished product.
