Tomato, egg and pitta salad

Method

1. Halve the tomatoes and put in a large bowl. Deseed the cucumber – the easiest way is to halve it lengthways and run the back of a teaspoon along the seed cavity. Dice the cucumber flesh and add to the bowl along with the olives.

2. Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan180°C/gas 6. Split each pitta open and tear into small pieces. Place on a baking tray and toast in the hot oven for 6-8 minutes, until pale-golden and crispy. Cool.

3. Divide the lettuce between plates. Toss the cooled, crispy pitta with the tomatoes, cucumber and olives, and scatter over the lettuce along with the egg and dill. Dress with the vinegar and oil and season to serve.
