Steg för steg

1
Prepare the shanklish cheese by crumbling it into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Cirka 2 min
Kockens tips: If the shanklish is very firm, you can grate it for a finer texture, or gently mash it with a fork.
2
Dice the tomatoes into small, uniform pieces.
Cirka 3 min
Kockens tips: For best results, use ripe, firm tomatoes like Roma or beefsteak. Remove the watery core to prevent the salad from becoming soggy.
3
Finely chop the yellow onion.
Cirka 2 min
Kockens tips: For a milder onion flavor, soak the chopped onion in cold water for 10 minutes, then drain thoroughly before adding to the salad.
4
Chop the fresh parsley, ensuring it is thoroughly dried after washing to prevent diluting the dressing.
Cirka 2 min
Kockens tips: Use flat-leaf parsley for its robust flavor and tender leaves.
5
Add the diced tomatoes, finely chopped yellow onion, and chopped fresh parsley to the bowl with the crumbled shanklish cheese.
Cirka 1 min
Kockens tips: Ensure all vegetables are roughly the same size for a harmonious texture in each bite.
6
Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil generously over the ingredients in the bowl.
Cirka 1 min
Kockens tips: Use a high-quality, fruity extra virgin olive oil as it is a prominent flavor in this simple dressing.
7
Gently toss all ingredients together until they are well combined and the olive oil evenly coats everything.
Cirka 1 min
Kockens tips: Mix with a light hand to avoid mashing the shanklish cheese too much, preserving its crumbly texture.
8
Serve the Shanklish Salad immediately with fresh pita bread.
Kockens tips: Warm the pita bread slightly before serving for a softer texture and enhanced aroma.

Kockens tips:

This vibrant salad pairs wonderfully with other meze dishes like hummus, baba ghanoush, or tabbouleh for a complete Lebanese spread. 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.
