DELICIOUS GREEK LENTIL SALAD RECIPE WITH FETA CHEESE (FAKES SALATA)



Delicious Greek Lentil Salad Recipe with Feta cheese (Fakes Salata) image

An absolutely delicious and super healthy Greek lentil salad recipe with feta cheese and fresh vegetables. Whether eaten as a snack, side or light vegetarian meal, this super easy feta lentil salad recipe never fails to impress!

Provided by Eli K. Giannopoulos

Categories     Salad

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

400g brown lentils, picked and rinsed (14 oz.)
1 bay leaf
2-3 peppers (red, orange, yellow), roasted and sliced
250g feta cheese, crumbled (9 oz.)
10 cherry tomatoes, cut in half or 1 juicy tomato, cut in cubes
1 red onion, chopped
a handful fresh parsley (or dill), chopped
a handful fresh mint, chopped
10 kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
salt and freshly ground pepper
6 tbsps extra virgin olive oil
6 tbsps red wine vinegar
1 clove of garlic, minced
a pinch of sweet paprika

Steps:

  • To prepare this Greek style lentil salad recipe with feta cheese, start by cooking the lentils. Place the lentils in a colander and rinse them thoroughly under running water. Drain and place them in a large pot. Cover the lentils with a 5-6cm of cold water, season with salt, add the bay leaf and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and cook for about 20-25 minutes. For this Greek lentil feta salad recipe the lentils should be cooked, but still retain a slight tooth. Keep in mind that different varieties of lentils cook at different times, so have a taste after 15 minutes and be careful not to overcook them!
  • In the meantime prepare the vegetables. For this Greek feta lentil salad recipe, you could use the peppers raw, cut into little cubes or roasted. Roasting the peppers, until slightly soft, will give extra flavour. To roast the peppers, cut them in half crosswise and place on a baking tray, lined with parchment pepper. Drizzle with a little olive oil and season with salt. Bake in preheated oven at 200-220C for about 20 minutes, or until softened.
  • To prepare the dressing for this Greek lentil salad recipe, add all the ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine.
  • When the lentils are cooked, drain them in a colander and place under cold running water to stop the cooking process. Once cooled slightly place lentils in a large serving bowl and toss with dressing. Add the chopped onion, cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, olives and roasted peppers (sliced) and blend. Wait to add the fresh herbs just before serving. Enjoy!

  • Rinse the lentils in cold water and drain. Put them in a medium-size pan in plenty of water, bring to the boil then reduce to a simmer for about 30 minutes until tender but still holding their shape. Drain and rinse in cold water.
  • Chop the tomatoes in half sideways – it makes it easier to remove the seeds. Scoop out the seeds. Dice and place in a salad bowl.
  • Peel the cucumber. (The peel could be used to jazz up some ice-cold water.) Slice in half lengthways then scoop out the seeds with a teaspoon. Dice and add to the salad bowl.

  • Combine the lentils and barley with the garlic slices and water to cover by a couple of inches, and cook until they are tender. (If your lentils are fairly fresh you can cook them with the barley, for about 45 minutes total cooking time. If your lentils have been in the pantry a while I'd probably cook the barley and lentils separately, because lentils take much longer to cook when they are older.)
  • While lentils and barley are cooking, dice tomatoes or cut the cherry tomatoes in half, thinly slice the green onions, crumble the Feta, and measure out the capers. Mix together the lemon juice, red wine vinegar, Greek seasoning, and minced garlic and then whisk in the olive oil a little at a time to make the dressing.
  • When lentils and barley are tender, drain them well, discarding the garlic, and then combine in a bowl large enough to fit all the salad ingredients. Let lentils and barley cool for about 20 minutes, then stir in enough dressing so they're well moistened. (You won't need all the dressing, but save the extra to re-moisten the salad after it's been refrigerated or to use on a green salad.) Add the diced tomatoes, green onions, feta, and capers and gently combine. Serve salad slightly warm or at room temperature.
  • I usually never refrigerate tomatoes, but this salad was still very good after it had been refrigerated. Let salad come to room temperature and re-moisten with the leftover dressing after refrigerating if desired. (Next time I might just add tomatoes to the part I was going to eat and add the tomatoes to the leftover salad as I ate it.)
