Tomatoes with tamarind gazpacho
Simple Too, p. 242
The idea of blitzing tomatoes and aromatics into a dressing for tomato salad isn’t ours. We came across it at Between Us, a wonderful restaurant in Cape Town, where the caprese came with torn chunks of local mozzarella and everything was drenched with a delicious tomatoey-vinegary-herby dressing. This version can easily have mozzarella added too, if you like, and don’t forget some bread!
