Finely chop the mint and basil. Peel the skin from the tomatoes, quarter them, remove all the cores, and cut the tomatoes into fine cubes (approx. 8 x 8 mm). Add the onion rings. Add the olive oil, mint, and basil, and gently fold in. Season with a little grated lemon zest, sea salt, and pepper. Tastes great as a topping for bruschetta!
