Greek Salad with Whipped Feta
A go-to salad for when the evenings are lighter and the air is warmer. Allow the sharp vinegar, sweet tomatoes, fragrant oregano and salty feta to transport you to warmer climes.
Method
Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 190°C/170°C and cook the garlic ciabatta according to the packet instructions.
Step 2
Prepare the tomatoes according to the instructions in the ingredients list and add them to a large bowl. Add a pinch of salt and set aside whilst you prepare the remaining ingredients (this will enhance the flavour of the tomatoes). Peel, deseed and roughly dice the cucumber and finely slice the red onion. Drain the black olives and add the diced feta. Pour away any watery juices from the tomatoes, then add the cucumber, red onion, black olives and feta to the bowl.
Step 3
Add the red wine vinegar, olive oil, and oregano and season to taste with a little salt and black pepper. Serve the salad with the warmed garlic bread and whipped feta dip on this side, if you wish.
