I am back to the kitchen with this salad, with very basic ingredients but full of flavour. The courgette texture improves after releasing some water and being marinated. The vinaigrette gives the right freshness for these summer days.
And if you are lucky to find tuna belly in olive oil in your area you will notice the difference immediately, it is so delicate.
We had a great time in La Vera, Caceres. Sunny days, family and friends. Days in the rivers and horse riding in the mountains…I miss those days.
It was cherry and summer fig (the black ones) season and they were everywhere. You could pick them up from the trees and so we did.
It is always hard to come back. To fight the post holiday blues I have already booked flights for my next one. I will be heading to Northern India in November. A good chance to learn loads about Indian people and their cuisine.
The music. Black by Pearl Jam. Have a great weekend!
