Tomato, Red Pepper and Cucumber Salad brings together chopped ripe tomatoes, sweet red pepper and crisp cucumber. It is a simple fresh salad found on home tables across Turkey and the wider Mediterranean, rather than a dish tied to one particular region. The vegetables are usually cut into bite-sized pieces and tossed just before serving.
Juicy, crunchy and mildly sweet, it makes a refreshing side for grilled foods, beans or other everyday meals, and works well as a light lunch with bread. A squeeze of lemon and a little olive oil add flavour without weighing it down. The salad is vitamin C-rich and low in calories; add chickpeas or another filling accompaniment if you want a more substantial meal.
