Instructions

First of all, wash your purslane and dry in a salad spinner.
Now remove all the leaves and put them into your serving bowl. Discard the thick stems.
Now add your parsley, peppers and onion.
Add the sumac (or cranberry hibiscus leaves) to your salad and carefully mix.
Chop your tomatoes into bite-sized chunks (or halve them if using cherry tomatoes) and carefully scatter over the top of the salad.
Place your purslane and tomato salad in the fridge until you are ready to serve.
For The Dressing
Mix all your ingredients together in a ramekin dish.
Do a taste test and add more of whatever you feel is necessary.
