🥗 Hungarian Marinated Tomato Salad (Paradicsomsaláta)


Instructions:

  1. Slice tomatoes and place them in a bowl. Add onion slices if using.
  2. In a small jar or bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, sugar, paprika, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Pour dressing over tomatoes and onions. Toss gently.
  4. Cover and let marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes (better if 2–3 hours).
  5. Garnish with fresh parsley or dill before serving.

🍽 Serving Suggestions:

  • Pairs wonderfully with fried pork schnitzel, grilled meats, or sausages.
  • Serve with fresh crusty bread to soak up the tangy juices.
  • In Hungary, this salad is often part of a mezze-style spread with cucumber salad and pickled peppers.
