Why This Recipe Works
Inspired by a roadside restaurant near Mount Popa, this salad uses underripe tomatoes for a pleasant sourness that balances the richness of roasted peanuts and chili oil. It is incredibly cooling and satisfying on a hot day.
Instructions
1
Heat the oil briefly with the chiles and flakes to infuse the flavors, then set aside to cool.
2
Slice the tomatoes into thin wedges and place them in a bowl with shallots, garlic, and peanuts.
3
Pour the cooled chili oil over the tomatoes and season with salt and lime juice.
4
Mix by hand to help the tomatoes release some of their juices, which will blend with the oil to create the dressing.
Storage: Refrigerate for up to 2 days.
