This simple marinated tomato salad is a perfect summer staple. It requires only five core ingredients: fresh cherry tomatoes, grated garlic, olive oil, lemon juice or vinegar, and minced herbs. The tomatoes are tossed with the marinade and left to rest, allowing the flavours to meld beautifully. It is an ideal, quick preparation for a light salad or a flavourful addition to other dishes.

Ingredients

1 pound cherry or grape tomatoes, halved or quartered
1 clove garlic, finely grated
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice
1 tablespoon freshly minced herbs (I like parsley)
salt to taste (I use about 1/2 – 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt)

Method

Combine the halved tomatoes, grated garlic, olive oil, vinegar or lemon juice, minced herbs, and salt in a small bowl, tossing everything together.
Allow the tomatoes to marinate and develop flavour. Refrigerate them for a minimum of 2-3 hours, though they can soak for up to 24 hours, particularly with firmer tomatoes or if using in another salad. Serve at room temperature for the best results.
