Postupak

Korak po korak

  1. 1

    Prepare the shanklish cheese by crumbling it into a medium-sized mixing bowl.

    Oko 2 min

    Napomena kuhara: If the shanklish is very firm, you can grate it for a finer texture, or gently mash it with a fork.

  2. 2

    Dice the tomatoes into small, uniform pieces.

    Oko 3 min

    Napomena kuhara: For best results, use ripe, firm tomatoes like Roma or beefsteak. Remove the watery core to prevent the salad from becoming soggy.

  3. 3

    Finely chop the yellow onion.

    Oko 2 min

    Napomena kuhara: For a milder onion flavor, soak the chopped onion in cold water for 10 minutes, then drain thoroughly before adding to the salad.

  4. 4

    Chop the fresh parsley, ensuring it is thoroughly dried after washing to prevent diluting the dressing.

    Oko 2 min

    Napomena kuhara: Use flat-leaf parsley for its robust flavor and tender leaves.

  5. 5

    Add the diced tomatoes, finely chopped yellow onion, and chopped fresh parsley to the bowl with the crumbled shanklish cheese.

    Oko 1 min

    Napomena kuhara: Ensure all vegetables are roughly the same size for a harmonious texture in each bite.

  6. 6

    Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil generously over the ingredients in the bowl.

    Oko 1 min

    Napomena kuhara: Use a high-quality, fruity extra virgin olive oil as it is a prominent flavor in this simple dressing.

  7. 7

    Gently toss all ingredients together until they are well combined and the olive oil evenly coats everything.

    Oko 1 min

    Napomena kuhara: Mix with a light hand to avoid mashing the shanklish cheese too much, preserving its crumbly texture.

  8. 8

    Serve the Shanklish Salad immediately with fresh pita bread.

    Napomena kuhara: Warm the pita bread slightly before serving for a softer texture and enhanced aroma.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of dried mint or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. It also makes a fantastic light lunch on its own, especially during warmer months.
