For the vinaigrette

3 tbsp pure tahini

Wash all your vegetables. Cut the tomato in half then in stripe, then in small dice. Take the cucumber cut it in half and then in stripe and in small dice as well. Take the white cabbage and try to chop it as thinly as you can, as well as for the cilantro. Take note all the veggies and put them in a large salad bowl.

Prepare your vinaigrette

I like to use a small blender when it comes to work, we tahini. Take all the ingredients except for the water and blend it until smooth and all combine. Add then progressively add the water until nice and thick consistence. When it’s time to serve, pour the vinaigrette into the vegetable. Toss it well and out will be fresh to serve.

Very nice salad. Unusual bites with outstanding flavor. Happy cooking!!! And stay healthy!
