Tomato Anchovy Salad Recipes

TOMATO AND ANCHOVY SALAD

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk olive oil, chopped garlic and vinegar
• Toss the tomatoes, basil leaves, green beans and anchovy fillets
• Add all components to a salad bowl. Serve and enjoy.

TOMATO-ANCHOVY SALAD

Steps:

• Heat oil, anchovies, garlic, and rosemary in a small skillet over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until anchovies break down, about 4 minutes. Place tomatoes in a bowl or on a platter; drizzle with anchovy mixture and season with pepper. Serve atop crostini or as a side dish.

TOMATOES WITH BASIL AND ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Make the vinaigrette: Put garlic, shallot and vinegar in a small bowl. Whisk in 3 tablespoons olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Put anchovies in a small bowl and cover with milk. Leave for 5 minutes, then carefully rinse with water and blot with paper towels. (Alternatively, skip the milk and simply rinse anchovies with water and blot.) Transfer to a small plate and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• About 5 or 10 minutes before serving, place tomatoes in a large, deep platter or low-sided serving bowl. Season generously with salt and pepper, then add vinaigrette and toss gently to coat.
• Just before serving, add the basil leaves and toss gently. Garnish with anchovy fillets and a sprinkling of crushed red pepper, if desired.

BROAD BEANS WITH TOMATOES & ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Blanch the shelled beans in boiling water for 1 minute. Drain into a sieve and hold under running cold water to cool them down quickly. Drain again and peel off the outer hard skins - make a nick in the tops and pop the beans out.
• Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan until very hot, add the tomatoes and sauté over a high heat until the juices begin to run and caramelise. Tip in the spring onions and garlic and cook over a medium heat for 1-2 minutes until the onions just begin to soften and the garlic begins to turn golden. Now add the beans and sauté for 1-2 minutes until heated through. Stir in the anchovies so they break up, season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper, then stir in the marjoram or parsley and serve.

TOMATO SALAD WITH ANCHOVY TOASTS

Steps:

• Make the vinaigrette: Put the shallot and garlic in a small bowl. Add red wine vinegar, a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper and macerate 5 minutes. Whisk in the olive oil and set aside.
• Make the anchovy toasts: Pound garlic to a paste with a little salt, then mash anchovy fillets into the paste. Stir in olive oil. Paint toasts lightly with anchovy mixture and set aside.
• Arrange tomatoes on a platter or in a low wide bowl. Season tomatoes with salt and pepper. Scatter olives over tomatoes. Whisk vinaigrette and spoon evenly over tomatoes. Garnish with basil leaves and anchovy toast.
