Andalusian salad with chorizo and tomatoes
2 servings
30 minutes
Andalusian salad with chorizo and tomatoes is a vibrant and aromatic union of Spanish traditions and the freshness of Mediterranean cuisine. Chorizo originates from Spain, where this spicy sausage product consistently adorns gourmet tables. The juicy taste of fried chorizo combined with sweet-sour tomatoes, herbs, and balsamic vinegar creates a harmony of flavors enhanced by the spiciness of garlic and the tenderness of feta cheese. This salad not only satisfies but also offers a rich palette of textures—crunchy vegetables, soft cheese, and fried pieces of chorizo. An ideal option for a summer dinner or as an exquisite complement to meat dishes.
