      Ingredients

      3 beef tomatoes (British if available, Jack Hawkins are particularly good)
      3 spring onions
      For the dressing
      1 tsp Dijon mustard
      2 tsp tarragon or white wine vinegar
      2 tbsp olive oil
      pinch brown sugar
      1 tsp finely chopped mint
      salt
      freshly ground black pepper

      Method

      1. Turn the tomatoes on their side and cut through into slices about 
      0.5cm/0.25in thick. Arrange in overlapping circles on a plate.
      2. Trim and clean the spring onions. Cut in half lengthways and slice on 
      the diagonal. Scatter these over the tomatoes.
      3. Whisk all the dressing ingredients together and drizzle over the salad. 
      Serve.
