This vibrant tomato salad with shallot vinaigrette is the ultimate celebration of seasonal produce. Using thick slices of ripe beefsteak or heirloom tomatoes, this vegan dish highlights the natural sweetness of the fruit, beautifully balanced by the sharp tang of a homemade dressing. The addition of salt-packed capers provides a delightful savoury punch, while fresh basil leaves add a classic aromatic finish that makes the entire plate sing with Mediterranean flair.
Ideal as a light lunch or a sophisticated side dish for a summer barbecue, this recipe is as simple as it is elegant. For the best flavour, ensure your tomatoes are at room temperature before slicing, allowing their juices to mingle with the olive oil and vinegar. It is a healthy, gluten-free option that pairs perfectly with crusty sourdough bread to soak up the delicious juices.
