Ingredients
- 3 large round salad tomatoes
- 1 large Persian cucumber
- ¼ small red onion
- ½ green bell pepper
- ½ cup kalamata olives
- 1 teaspoon oregano plus extra garnish
- 4oz / 120g Greek feta cheese block
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil plus extra garnish
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Chop the tomatoes into large chunks or wedges and slice the cucumber into round circles - I like to peel some stripes off the skin too. Then thinly slice the bell pepper and red onion
- Add all the veggies in a large salad bowl with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, the oregano and season well with salt. Stir together and allow it to sit for at least 15 minutes for the flavors to develop
- To serve, use the same bowl or optionally transfer to a different shallow salad bowl including all the juices at the bottom of the bowl. Place the block of feta whole right on the top and garnish it with a sprinkle of oregano and drizzle of olive oilEnjoy your delicious and authentic Greek Salad and don't forget some crusty bread to dip into the yummy juices left at the bottom
