Tomato Salad With Lime and Cardamom Yoghurt

Tomato Salad With Lime and Cardamom Yoghurt

Ingredients

  • 70g Greek- style yoghurt
  • 50g soft, rindless goat’s cheese
  • ½ small garlic clove
  • 1-2 limes
  • 15 cardamom pods
  • 1 large green chilli
  • 500g ripe, sweet cherry tomatoes
  • 1 large banana shallot
  • 60ml olive oil
  • 10g mint leaves
  • Salt

Instructions

  • Mix the yogurt, goat’s cheese, garlic and a pinch of salt in a large bowl until smooth. Add half the lime zest, half the crushed cardamom and half the chilli and stir to combine.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together the tomatoes, shallot, lime juice, 2 tablespoons of oil and ½ teaspoon of salt with the remaining lime zest, cardamom and chilli, then add the yoghurt mixture and the mint. Gently mix everything together but not completely: you want to see the red of the tomatoes and the green of the mint in places. Transfer to a platter, drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil, and serve.
