Tomato Salad


An easy dish - anyone can make it and tomato is best for health!

Ingredients:-
Cucumber x 1 pc
Dessert Tomato x 1 pc (this is originally from Japan. But not easy to get and even if you can nowadays, not sure if everyone if comfortable to eat veggies from Japan :( replace with Italian tomato if necessary.)
Sesame salad dressing

How to prepare this:
1. Boil a pot of water.
2. Wash the tomato and gently make a cross cut over the tomato.
3. Once water is boiled, switch off gas and put tomtao inside hot water for 1 min.
4. Remove tomato and soak in ice water for 2 min. Peel off skin gently.
5. Pat dry and put to ziploc bag and place in refrigerator before serving time.
6. For the cucumber, wash and wipe dry, Then peel off some skin but not all. Slice as thin as possible and put back in refrigerator.
7. When you are ready to serve, place sesame salad sauce on the bottom of the plate, Then add the sliced cucumber to make a flower shape and lastly, tomato on top of the cucumber!

Easy! if you fancy something prettier, place a mint leaf at the top of the tomato!
