سلطة مشوية

Arabic to English Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
Hi everyone,

This is from a Libyan text, and it is a Libyan Jew who is cooking the food, in case this is a cultural speciality.

Does this literally mean grilled salad? Or is سلطة here a kind of fish?

This sentence is:

بدأنا السهرة بعشاء أعدّه ، طبق من الوراثة المشوية، وسلطة مشوية وخبز "طليان" ومع هذا قنينة عصير

Thanks!

A very popular first course dish from Tunisia, a country in North Africa that appreciates spiciness, it is especially consumed in the summer, and is a grilled vegetable, tomatoes, peppers, onions and garlic salad, that may also contain eggplant.

neutral Morano El-Kholy : Agree with: Salata mashwiya. Yes, the references are great but the title "GRILLED SALAD" is irrelevant.

سلطات تقدم إلى جانب المشاوي

I personally make and eat such kinds of salads next to the grilled meat, chicken, and fish.
These kinds of salads are known in our culture too.
