Tomato salad with sizzled chorizo vinaigrette
If you grow several varieties of tomato, salads are a good
way to show them off to their full advantage. The green tomatoes are not
underripe – they are a sweet variety.

Ingredient

2 tbsp olive oil

1 red onion, quartered and sliced
·
85g/3oz chorizo, skinned and finely chopped
·
250g/9oz mixed tomatoes – sliced, halved or quartered, depending

400g can cannellini beans, drained

Good handful baby spinach

Recipe
1.
Heat half the oil in a small pan, add the onion and chorizo, and cook
over a low heat until the oil starts to be released from the sausage.
2.
Meanwhile, tip the tomatoes, beans, avocado and spinach into a salad
bowl – but keep an eye on the chorizo to ensure that it doesn’t burn.
3.
Add the remaining oil to the pan with the vinegar, garlic and oregano, then
stand back as it will sizzle quite violently. Remove from the heat, pour on top
of the salad and toss well. Serve with crusty bread.
