Preparation
Step 1
Place Greek Salad Dressing ingredients in a jar and shake until well combined. Set aside for 20 minutes to let the flavours infuse.
Step 2
Tomatoes: Cut each tomato into 6 wedges, then cut each wedge into 3 or 4 pieces. If the tomato is watery, scoop out the watery seeds inside with a teaspoon.
Step 3
Cucumbers: Slice the cucumber into 1/2cm / 1/5" thick slices. Or if they are thick cucumbers, slice the cucumber in half vertically, then slice.
Step 4
Onion: Peel and finely slice the red onion. I keep it in rings - you could cut it in half then slice. (Note 2)
Step 5
Capsicum: Cut into short strips.
Step 6
Feta: Cut into 1cm / 2/5" cubes.
Step 7
Place the tomato, cucumber, onion, feta and olives in a bowl, sprinkle with oregano then pour over dressing. Toss to combine. Serve immediately!
