Roasted Tomato, Feta and Olive Salad

In this Roasted Tomato, Feta and Olive Salad, I've used a mixture of fresh and roasted tomatoes. Throw in the salty feta and those black olives ... sensational.

Ingredients

  • a selection of tomatoes, some fresh, some roasted - smaller, roasted tomatoes work better in salads as they keep their shape
  • a little Feta cheese - a little goes a long way
  • a few Kalamata olives, stones removed by pressing down on the olive with the flat part of a knife blade
  • a little red onion, finely chopped - just the tiniest amount works well, you don't want the dominant flavour to be onion
  • olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • a little basil or parsley, to garnish

Instructions

  1. Arrange the tomatoes on your serving plate and add the Feta, olives and red onion.
  2. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Garnish with a little chopped basil or parsley.

Notes

No precise quantities here - it's more of a guide than a recipe. Gauge your amounts on how many people you are serving and adjust the ratios to suit your taste. Replace the Feta with goat's cheese or some creamy Buffalo mozzarella if you'd prefer, skip the olives if they're not your thing and swap the parsley for basil if it suits. This is relaxed cooking ...
