About Çoban Salatası
Ozlem Warren's sumac coban salata combines cucumber, tomato and spring onions with flat-leaf parsley. Her rendition of Turkish shepherd's salad uses a simple olive-oil and lemon-juice dressing.
Ground sumac supplies the tangy accent highlighted in the recipe. The lemon adds brightness around the fresh vegetables, while salt and pepper complete the seasoning.
Coarsely chopped tomatoes sit among sliced cucumber and finely chopped onions and parsley. The salad accompanies a main course, or can form a lunch with cheese and crusty bread alongside.
