Spanish Salad with Tomatoes, Nectarines and Goat Cheese Recipe
Juicy tomatoes and sweet nectarines with pieces of creamy goat cheese make a summery salad in Spanish style. In Spain, fruit very often finds its way into savory dishes, especially in summer when it is at its ripest. This is a great way to make a quick lunch on a hot day when you don’t feel like cooking.

Ingredients
- tomatoes ripe, meaty, e.g. beefsteak or similar - 3 pieces
- nectarine ripe but firm - 2 pieces
- goat cheese soft, in a log or round - 80 g
- olive oil good quality, extra virgin - 2 tablespoons
- balsamic vinegar or sherry vinegar - 1 tablespoon
- honey runny - 1 teaspoon
- fresh basil torn into pieces - 8 leaves
- sea salt to taste
- black pepper freshly ground, to taste
Main Ingredient:
tomatoes
Preparation
- Wash the tomatoes and cut them into thick slices or wedges. If they are very juicy, you can pour off a little of the excess juice so the salad doesn’t become watery.
- Wash the nectarines, cut them in half, remove the stones and cut into eighths. You don’t need to peel them if the skin is thin.
- Cut the goat cheese into small slices or crumble it into bite-sized pieces with your fingers.
- On a large plate or platter, arrange the tomatoes and nectarines, tossing them lightly so the fruit and vegetables are intermingled.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar and honey until you get a smooth dressing. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Drizzle the salad with the dressing and gently shake or tilt the plate so the dressing spreads evenly.
- Scatter the pieces of goat cheese and the torn basil leaves over the top. Finally, lightly sprinkle the salad again with salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Serve immediately, before the tomatoes release too much juice.

Sałatka najlepiej smakuje od razu po przygotowaniu. Po kilku godzinach w lodówce pomidory puszczą dużo soku, a ser zmięknie – można ją wtedy wykorzystać jako dodatek do makaronu lub kaszy.
