Classic Greek Salad

Ingredients

• 4 ripe tomatoes, cut into wedges
• 1 English cucumber, half-moons
• 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 green bell pepper, sliced
• 1/2 cup Kalamata olives
• 200g block feta cheese
• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• Salt and black pepper

Instructions

1. Season the tomatoes

   Add the tomato wedges to a wide bowl and salt them directly. Let them sit while you prep — this draws out sweet juice that becomes part of the dressing.

2. Add the vegetables

   Add the cucumber, red onion, green pepper, and olives to the tomatoes. Toss gently to combine.

3. Dress and toss

   Whisk the olive oil and red wine vinegar with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour over the vegetables and toss lightly.

4. Finish with feta

   Lay the whole block of feta on top, drizzle with a little more oil, and shower with dried oregano. Serve at room temperature.
