Cut the tomatoes into large wedges or pieces. They should be ripe and meaty.
Description
Horiatiki, or traditional Greek salad, is the essence of Mediterranean cuisine - simple, fresh, and full of sunny flavors. Unlike many variations, the original version does not contain lettuce, but rather large pieces of tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, and onion, topped with a block of feta and Kalamata olives. The quality of the ingredients is key - ripe tomatoes, aromatic feta, and good extra virgin olive oil. Greek salad is a perfect addition to any meal or a light, standalone dish on hot days.

Preparation steps

Cut the bell pepper into thick strips or rings. Slice the onion into thin rings.
Arrange the vegetables on a flat plate or in a bowl. Scatter the olives.
Place the whole block of feta on top (do not crumble - this is traditional).
Drizzle generously with extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle with oregano, salt, and pepper.
Serve immediately with crispy bread for dipping in olive oil.

Tips
Serve the salad on a large ceramic plate or in a glass bowl. It pairs perfectly with crunchy bread that can be dipped in olive oil. You can garnish the dish with fresh herbs, such as basil or parsley, to add color.
Store leftover salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Freezing is not recommended, as the vegetables may lose their crunch. To reheat, it is better to take the salad out of the refrigerator for a moment to reach room temperature before serving.

Jak przechowywać resztki? W czym najlepiej?
Jeśli mięso jest twarde, dusić dłużej na mniejszym ogniu. Cierpliwość popłaca!
Dobre, ale czas przygotowania mocno zaniżony. U mnie zajęło dwa razy dłużej.
Jaki jest najlepszy zamiennik dla śmietany? Szukam wersji wegańskiej.
