Achik Chuk Chuk with Style


I was attempting to make an Uzbek salad that requires only tomato and and onion but I decided it needed some green so I created a new salad. This is what I did:

Half an onion sliced into VERY thin rings, as thin as you can slice them.
Half a tomato also thinly sliced into circles. Garden tomatoes are preferred but unfortunately this is not this season for tomatoes, in the fall maybe just skip the tomatoes.
A handful of cut up kale leaves
Fresh dill and parsley to taste
Tablespoon of red wine vinegar
dash of salt, pepper, cayenne pepper


You put what in my Achik Chuk Chuk? Nima?





Why add Kale to an ubiquitous Uzbek salad? Kale is one of the healthiest vegetables on earth. It has a high concentration of antioxidant vitamins like Vitamins A, C, and K.  This salad tastes great with Kebab (shashlik).
