   Cut the peeled onion into 1/8-inch thick slices.

5. 5

   Separate the slices into rings and arrange over the tomatoes.

6. 6

   Sprinkle with the salt, pepper, vinegar and oil, coating the whole surface as evenly as possible.

   Sprinkle the shredded basil on top and serve at room temperature.

8. 8

   This goes well with a crunchy, crusty French bread.
