The Pimpirrana Murciana is a typical salad from the Murcia region, in the southeast of Spain. It is prepared with fresh and local ingredients such as tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, onion and garlic, all cut into small cubes. Then it is dressed with olive oil, vinegar and salt. It is usually served cold as an accompaniment to summer lunches and dinners. Depending on the recipe and region, there may be variations in ingredients and preparation.
