Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 large tomatoes
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
sea salt to taste
1 ½ teaspoons dried oregano
1 (4 ounce) container crumbled feta cheese
½ cucumber, sliced
1 small green bell pepper, sliced
¼ cup Greek black olives
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Cut your tomatoes into wedges over the bowl that you're serving the salad in, so that any extra juices land in the bowl. Add onion slices. Liberally season with salt and oregano. Mix and allow tomatoes to sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours, so that the salt releases the tomatoes' juices.
  • Mix in feta cheese, cucumber, bell pepper, and olives just before serving. Stir everything together. Drizzle with olive oil.

PEASANT SALAD FROM CYPRUS (CHORIATIKI)



Peasant Salad from Cyprus (Choriatiki) image

Perfect summer food. A reminiscence of vacations in Cyprus or Greece. Serve with bread and a cooled light wine or mineral water. Tastes best outdoors in the hottest time of the day. The treatment of the onion will reduce the strong and bitter taste and make it possible to use a greater amount of it. The raw eggplant may seem peculiar, but will add a little bitter taste that goes well with the sweeter vegetables. Traditionally, the cheese is not mixed with the salad, but exposed on top. Neither is the dressing made in advance, but up to the guests. NB that there is no lettuce in this recipe.

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 large ripe tomatoes
1 cucumber
1 large red onions or 1 large white onion
1 stalk celery
1/2 small eggplant
4 small fresh beetroots
1/2 lb Greek feta cheese
20 kalamata olives
1 tablespoon capers (optional)
oregano (preferably fresh)
salt
pepper
wine vinegar
extra virgin olive oil (preferably Greek)

Steps:

  • Slice the onion very thinly.
  • Mix with one tablespoon (sic!) salt and set aside for 10 minutes.
  • Knead the onion until it becomes transparent.
  • Then rinse in lots of water and drain.
  • Peel the cucumber.
  • Cut it and the tomatoes into large chunks.
  • Cut the celery and eggplant into smaller pieces.
  • Arrange nicely on four plates.
  • Grate the beetroots and put on top (mixing them with the rest would make the salad red).
  • Divide the cheese into four pieces and put on top of the beetroots.
  • Garnish with olives, capers and oregano.
  • Serve salt, pepper, vinegar and oil à part, so that everyone makes his own dressing.
