THAI-STYLE TOMATO SALAD WITH CUCUMBER AND GINGER



Thai-Style Tomato Salad With Cucumber and Ginger image

The classic combination of tomatoes and cucumbers gets new life here from a lively dressing of lime zest and juice, fish sauce and serrano chile inspired by Thai papaya salad. It's a study in contrasts: Bracing on its own, the salty-spicy vinaigrette is mellowed by fresh summer tomatoes and cucumbers.

3 Persian cucumbers
Kosher salt
3 teaspoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lime zest plus 3 tablespoons juice (from 2 limes)
4 teaspoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon coconut oil or canola oil
1 tablespoon very thinly sliced green serrano chile (about 1/2 large chile)
1 garlic clove, finely grated
12 ounces multicolored cherry tomatoes and small tomatoes, halved or quartered, depending on size

1/2 cup small sprigs cilantro
1/4 small red onion, very thinly sliced
1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and cut into matchsticks
1/4 cup roasted salted peanuts, coarsely chopped

CHOPPED CUCUMBER AND TOMATO SALAD



Chopped Cucumber and Tomato Salad image

Here's an easy summer salad that's always a winner. There are many similar chopped salads served throughout the Eastern Mediterranean, but this version with halved sweet cherry tomatoes is especially attractive. Your own take can be a variation on this one: Feel free to use large tomatoes, chop the vegetables as small or large as you like (roughly chopped has its charms), add other herbs like basil, mint or dill, or swap the feta for mozzarella.
