Salad with arugula tomatoes and cheese

How to make a salad with arugula tomatoes and cheese?  First of all, prepare the tomatoes for the salad. They should be taken out of the refrigerator in advance - their delicate taste is better revealed at room temperature. It is preferable if the tomatoes are of different colors (red, pink and even green). Then the picture of the dish will be more colorful and diverse, and the taste of the salad will be multifaceted.

Tomatoes should be rinsed under cold running water and wiped dry with paper towels. Then, after the tomatoes are completely dry, put them on a cutting board and cut them into thin circles with a sharp knife.

 Rinse all the greens necessary for the salad under running water and dry them, spreading them out on a paper towel.

A large flat dish is best suited for serving this salad. First of all, you need to scatter arugula leaves on the dish. It should dry completely, otherwise excess water can spoil the taste of the salad.

Next, place the tomatoes cut into circles in several rows on the arugula. If tomatoes of different colors are used, then you can alternate colors when laying out.

Top the tomatoes with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking.

Tear the basil into small leaves with your hands and also sprinkle tomatoes with them.

Finely chop the green onions with a knife and sprinkle them on top of the salad.

Next, for a better balanced taste of the salad, you should prepare a dressing for it. To do this, in a small container (bowl or deep plate), mix fragrant extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Whisk all the ingredients with a whisk or a regular fork to combine. And pour this mixture evenly over the tomatoes and greens.

 Break the goat cheese into pieces with your hands and scatter it over the top layer of the salad.

That's it! Salad with arugula, tomatoes and goat cheese is ready! It can be served immediately on the table - it's very tasty.

Bon appetit!

Choose juicy tomatoes, but dense. Soft fruits do not keep their shape well, in the process of slicing and cooking they will spread into a shapeless mass and spoil the appearance of the dish.
