Rinse and dry the romaine thoroughly, then chill it for 10 minutes if you have time.
Slice the romaine into thin ribbons and pile into a wide bowl.
Scatter the spring onion and dill over the greens.
Whisk the lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper in a small bowl until it turns cloudy and thick.
Pour the dressing over the greens right before serving and toss well.
π‘ Dress at the last minute β romaine wilts fast once it's oiled.
Crumble the feta over the top and finish with a crack of black pepper.
While horiatiki gets the international fame, marouli salata is the salad actually on most Greek tables in spring, built around crunchy romaine rather than tomato. Fresh dill is non-negotiable, and the dressing is whisked together right in the bowl just before serving so the leaves stay crisp.
