Salads • Uzbek
Description
To prepare achichuk, you will need very ripe tomatoes that yield a lot of juice and a very sharp knife. It is best to mix achichuk just before serving due to the abundance of juice released by the tomatoes.
Ingredients
- Tomatoes 2 pieces
- Spanish onions 1 head
- Coarse Salt to taste
- Herbs to taste
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Using the sharpest knife, slice the tomatoes into the thinnest translucent half-rings and quarters until you reach the stem.
Step 2
If you don't have a very sharp knife, a bread knife works best as it doesn't tear the tomato and allows for very thin slicing.
Step 3
Slice the onion into very thin half-rings as well.
Step 4
In a salad bowl, combine the tomatoes and onion, season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 5
Top with finely chopped herbs of your choice (green onion, mint, cilantro).
