Horiatiki (Greek Village Salad)

Method

1. 1

   Cut the tomatoes into fat wedges over the serving bowl so no juice is lost.

   💡 Never refrigerate the tomatoes — cold kills their aroma.

2. 2

   Add the cucumber, pepper rings, red onion and olives and season lightly with salt.

3. 3

   Splash over the vinegar, then pour on the olive oil generously.

4. 4

   Lay the whole slab of feta on top and dust it with the oregano.

   💡 Serving the feta unbroken is the traditional flourish — let everyone break off their share.

5. 5

   Serve immediately with crusty bread for the juices at the bottom.
