Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium Red onion
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 1 large Avocado
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 small Green chili
Instructions
Wash the cherry tomatoes thoroughly and cut them in halves. Place in a large mixing bowl.
Peel and finely slice the red onion into thin rings. Add to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Peel the cucumber, remove seeds if desired for a crunchier texture, and chop it into small cubes. Add to the mixture.
Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop out the flesh and chop it into bite-sized cubes. Gently mix it into the salad.
Chop the fresh cilantro coarsely and add it to the bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice, extra virgin olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Finely chop the green chili, removing seeds if you prefer less heat, and add to the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the vegetable and avocado mixture, gently tossing to ensure everything is well coated.
Let the kachumbari sit for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve fresh.
