This vibrant tomato, onion, and roasted lemon salad offers a sophisticated twist on a classic summer side dish. By briefly blanching and then roasting thin slices of lemon with fragrant sage, the citrus loses its sharp acidity and develops a mellow, complex sweetness. When paired with juicy heirloom tomatoes and a spiced pomegranate dressing, the result is a beautifully balanced vegan dish that delivers a punch of Mediterranean flavour.
Ideal for serving alongside grilled vegetables or as part of a larger mezze spread, this healthy salad is as visually stunning as it is delicious. The addition of fresh mint and flat-leaf parsley provides a burst of herbal freshness, while the allspice adds a subtle warmth. It is a wonderful way to elevate seasonal tomatoes into something truly special for your next outdoor gathering.

Ingredients for Tomato, Onion, and Roasted Lemon Salad
1 lemon, halved lengthwise, thinly sliced, seeds removed
1 tablespoon thinly sliced fresh sage leaves
1/2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon pomegranate molasses
1/2 teaspoons ground allspice
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
675g mixed small tomatoes, such as Sun Gold, cherry, or heirloom, halved
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsely leaves with tender stems
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, torn if large

How to make Tomato, Onion, and Roasted Lemon Salad
Preheat oven to 325°. Cook lemon slices in a medium saucepan of boiling water 2 minutes to remove bitterness. Drain and pat dry.
Gently toss lemon slices with sage, sugar, and 1 tablespoon oil in a medium bowl. Spread out on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake until lemons are no longer wet and only slightly coloured, 15–20 minutes. Let cool.
Whisk pomegranate molasses, allspice, and remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Add lemons, tomatoes, onion, parsley, mint, and sprouts, if using, and toss gently; season with salt and pepper.
