Ooh, lovely! I've been making something a wee bit similar lately - tomatoes, fresh chilli, garlic, red onion, coriander - and having it on grilled bread (aka toast).
I like the sound of this, I am not a fan of mint sauce, but I like the twist on this.
Hey. Just wanted to say thanks for leaving that message on my blog about he who shall not be named. I doubt there's a blogger in blog land who hasn't been touched by the withered hand of that bitter old queen! Onwards and upwards!
Kitchen Maid - I cannot wait until summer - I love using fresh herbs with chilli! Mmmn mmn!
Donkey - I am totally with you on the subject of mint. I associate mint with toothpaste and mouthwash! But I am learning to love it by slowiy including it in my food!
Dom - thank you so much for this. You have set my mind at rest ;)
