Step by step recipe


Stage 1 - 40 min.
Four-tier glasses
Peel 9 tomatoes, cut in strips then in dice.

Put in a strainer, salt and mix. Leave to stand about one hour, to draw out some of the juice.

Stage 2 - 5 min.
Four-tier glasses
Prepare the vinaigrette by mixing 12 tablespoons olive oil with 3 limes juice.

Salt and pepper, and add a little chives.

Add this vinaigrette to the drained diced tomatoes. Set aside.

Stage 3 - 20 min.
Four-tier glasses
Prepare 750 g cauliflower tabouleh but without tomatoes.

Stage 4 - 7 min.
Four-tier glasses
Start asembling glasses: Put guacamole into each one up to ¼ of the height.

The best way is to use a forcing bag to put guacamole tidily right into the bottom of the glass.

Stage 5 - 7 min.
Four-tier glasses
Using a fork, add diced tomato to another ¼ of the height (to halfway).

Be careful to not put too much vinaigrette with the tomatoes.

You might need to push the tomatoes down to compact them a little.

Stage 6 - 7 min.
Four-tier glasses
Add another ¼ height of cauliflower tabbouleh ( push this down too if needed).

Stage 7 - 7 min.
Four-tier glasses
For the last ¼, add houmous. Again, using a forcing bag is easier.

Stage 8 - 3 min.
Four-tier glasses
Finally, add a pinch of chopped chives or a pinch of paprika or curry on top.

It's ready.
Remarks
You can prepare the four mixes the day before, even preparing the glasses, in which case seal the top of each glass with plastic film, and remove from the fridge at least one hour before serving.
Keeping: Several hours in the fridge, covered by a plastic film.
