From our kitchenÇoban salatası – Turkish shepherd's salad
Shepherd's salad goes with everything: finely diced vegetables, lots of parsley, lemon and good olive oil. With beyaz peynir it becomes a meal in itself.

Dice tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers finely, slice the onion into thin strips.
Chop the parsley finely and mix everything in a bowl.
Whisk lemon juice, olive oil and salt, pour over the salad and toss gently.
Sprinkle with sumac, add cheese and olives if you like. Serve at once.
Tip from the storeWe stock the small Turkish cucumbers and sumac – sumac gives the salad its typical tangy note.
