About this recipe
Classic Greek salad with feta and olives is a fresh, crisp snack full of ripe vegetables and herbs. Tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, and red onion create a juicy base, while salty feta and black olives add character. It is best to prepare the salad just before serving so the vegetables retain their firmness. Serve it as a small snack, appetizer, or alongside bread.
Ingredients
Vegetables and Add-Ins
400 g ripe tomatoes
1 large cucumber, about 300 g
1 red bell pepper, about 150 g
1 small red onion, about 80 g
120 g block feta
100 g pitted black olives
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Dressing
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Steps
Wash the tomatoes, cucumber, and bell pepper. Cut the tomatoes into large pieces, the cucumber into thick half-moons, and the bell pepper into strips. Peel the onion and slice it into thin slivers.
Transfer the vegetables to a large bowl, add the black olives, and toss gently so as not to crush the tomatoes.
Combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, pepper and half of the measured teaspoon of oregano in a small bowl. Stir for about 30 seconds, until combined.
Pour the dressing into the bowl with the vegetables and toss briefly, only until the ingredients are evenly coated. Taste and adjust the salt if needed, keeping in mind that the feta and olives are already salty.
Place the feta on top in one piece, or cut it into large cubes and add it last. Sprinkle with the remaining half teaspoon of oregano and serve immediately.
