Ezme Ingredients

Preparation

Ezme Preparation

1. Prepare the Vegetables

Finely chop the tomatoes, red bell pepper, onion, cucumber, and parsley. The finer the chop, the better the texture of the Ezme.

2. Combine Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, cucumber, and parsley.

3. Add Seasoning

Add the minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

4. Taste and Adjust

Taste the Ezme and adjust the seasoning as necessary. Add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice according to your preference.

5. Chill and Serve

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the Ezme chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld.
