Categories     Appetizer     Salad     Side Dish

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 medium-sized nice and ripe tomatoes
1/2 cucumber
1/2 red onion
1/2 green bell pepper
12 olives ( preferably Kalamata or other Greek)
10-12 pieces of capers
1 block feta cheese (about 100 grams / 3.5 oz)
1 teaspoon dried Greek oregano
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
kosher salt & freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Cut tomatoes in half. Cut each half into 6 bite-sized pieces. Add to a salad bowl.
  • With a vegetable peeler remove half the skin of the cucumber (you may leave as is or remove completely). Cut the cucumber in 4 long sticks lengthwise and then chop to bite-sized pieces. Add to the bowl as well.
  • Cut onion and pepper to thin slices and add to the bowl.
  • Cut the feta cheese into 1 cm (1/2 inch) squares and add to the bowl along with the capers & olives.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and vinegar. Season with kosher salt, freshly ground pepper, and dried oregano. Mix everything well for about 1-2 minutes (better if you do it with your hands). Ideally, let the salad sit for 15 minutes for the flavors to blend.
  • Transfer to 2 small bowls or serve as is along with some grilled bread.

THE ULTIMATE GREEK SALAD



The Ultimate Greek Salad image

This is the most delicious salad - fresh and wonderful-tasting. FYI, lettuce can very much be a part of any greek salad - if you want it to. We like lettuce in my family and I often add it. It would not be 'authentic' in a Horiatiki (village) salad, but who cares?

6 tablespoons olive oil

3 large plum tomatoes, seeded and coarsely chopped
1 English cucumber, peeled and coarsely chopped (the long, thin, almost seedless ones)
