Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make a salad of Peking cabbage, bell pepper and tomatoes? Prepare the products. Choose forks as small as possible, and if it is large, then use the upper green parts of the leaves — they are tastier. Instead of the usual tomatoes, you can take a few cherry tomatoes. Any greens that you like or have in stock will do. Take the olives pitted.
Step 2:
Remove the top leaves from the cabbage. Cut the desired amount either immediately from the head, or by tearing off a few leaves. You can cut cabbage arbitrarily — like me, with straws, or squares. You can also pick cabbage with your hands, as is usually done with salad.
Step 3:
Wash and dry the pepper. Cut it and take out the core with the seeds. Cut the pepper into strips. Or other pieces, as you prefer. I took yellow pepper, but any color will do — red, green.
Step 4:
Wash the tomatoes and cut them into small pieces. Cherry tomatoes are enough to cut in half.
Step 5:
Remove the olives from the brine and dry them a little. Cut each olive in half. If you have olives with a stone, then take them out by crushing each olive with the bottom of the glass.
Step 6:
Rinse and dry the greens properly. Tear off the leaves from the rough stems. Chop them finely with a sharp knife.
Step 7:
Prepare the salad dressing. How to make a refueling? Pour the olive oil into a small bowl. Instead of olive oil, you can use any vegetable according to your taste. Pour in a little lemon juice. I advise you to add it with caution — lemons come in different acids, and not everyone likes very sour dressings. Add salt and pepper. Mix the dressing with a spoon and try, if necessary, add the missing ingredients.
Step 8:
Take a plate, put the cabbage on the bottom. Put chopped bell peppers, tomatoes, olives and herbs on top. Pour the dressing over the salad and serve immediately. After standing, such a salad can give too much juice. Therefore, if you prepare such a salad in advance, then fill it just before serving. Bon appetit!
Very nice and light salad. You can add fresh cucumbers and red onions to it to taste.
The salad will look nice and neat if you cut all the ingredients into pieces of the same size and shape (for example, cubes).
How to choose the right olives? It is better to buy the product in a transparent package. So you can see their appearance and color. If the olives are too black, then food dyes have been added. The fruits should be elastic, whole, with a smooth, shiny skin. Too soft, overripe olives will not be stored for a long time.
Since the degree of salinity, sweetness, bitterness, sharpness, acid, burning is individual for everyone, always add spices, spices and seasonings, focusing on your taste! If you put some of the seasonings for the first time, then keep in mind that there are spices that it is especially important not to shift (for example, chili pepper).
