Ingredients
- 1 large Spanish Onion or Vidalia Onion, halved lengthwise and very thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 5 large ripe tomatoes, peeled and sliced
- 1 serrano or jalapeno chile, seeded and finely minced
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro or parsley
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable Oil or extra- Virgin Olive Oil
Directions
Place the onion slices and salt in a bowl; cover with cold water, and soak for about 10 minutes.
Drain in a colander and rinse briefly under cold running water.
Shake well.
This step will eliminate most of the sharpness of the onion.
Arrange the tomatoes on a platter.
Salt generously.
Top with the onion, chile, and cilantro.
Sprinkle the oil evenly over the salad, toss to combine, and serve at once.
