Krok po kroku

1. 1

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

   Około 2 min

   Wskazówka kucharza: 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.

   Około 3 min

   Wskazówka kucharza: 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.

   Około 2 min

   Wskazówka kucharza: 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.

   Około 2 min

   Wskazówka kucharza: 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.

   Około 1 min

   Wskazówka kucharza: 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.

   Około 1 min

   Wskazówka kucharza: 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.

   Około 1 min

   Wskazówka kucharza: 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.

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