Tomato flowers filled with Feta



There were large tomatoes just delivered. Taut and fresh. A perfect promise of a juicy bite. I had some Feta that needed to be used. I wish I had some fresh fragrant Italian basil. But none. Anyways I made this lovely salad fit for a party table on a very ordinary day. 

It was a day of sabudana khichadi and toasted banana chips. On starch heavy days one needs some bites of fresh salad as palate changer. These tomato feta flowers were perfect 👌🏽 

It’s an idea not a recipe. So here is what I did. 

1. Cut the tomatoes from smooth side vertically so it will sit on the stalk side on the plate without tilting.

2. Bloomed the ‘petals’. 

3. Crumble the feta. Spooned it in the centre of the flower. 

I would have put a plucked basil leaf each to top the feta if I had the option. 

A beautiful looking salad you have. Tadah !
