How to make Greek Salad
Tips from the cook
- Cut the tomatoes into big wedges and the cucumber into thick pieces, so they stay crisp.
- Slice the red onion thin, and soak it in cold water for 5 minutes if it is too sharp.
- Keep the feta in one piece on top and let people break it up as they eat.
- Add the olive oil and vinegar at the table, as salt draws water out of the vegetables.
