Turkish Tomato And Feta Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and place them in a large bowl. Dice the feta in 1/4-inch dice, crumbling it as little as possible. Add the feta to the tomatoes and then add the onion, vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper, basil, and parsley. Toss carefully and salt, to taste, depending on the saltiness of the feta. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Cut the ciabatta into bite-size pieces and spread out in a single layer on a baking sheet. Drizzle over 1 tbsp oil. Grill for 3-4 mins, turning the pieces of bread occasionally, until just golden. Leave to cool.
• Put the toasted ciabatta in a serving bowl with tomatoes, cucumber, olives and feta. Tear up the basil, then scatter over the salad. Whisk the balsamic and remaining olive oil together and drizzle over, then mix gently to combine.

Steps:

• Whisk basil, lemon juice, olive oil, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl to make dressing.
• Arrange tomatoes and cucumbers in a serving dish. Drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with feta cheese.

Steps:

• Chop the lettuce into bite-size pieces. Seed the peppers, remove the cores and cut the flesh into thin strips. Chop the cucumber and slice or chop the tomatoes. Cut the onion in half, then slice thinly.
• Place all chopped salad ingredients in a bowl and sprinkle the feta over the top and lightly toss together.
• For the dressing, blend together the olive oil, lemon juice and garlic in a small bowl. Stir in the parsley and mint and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Pour the dressing over the salad, toss lightly and serve garnished with a handful of black olives.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Heat the grill to its highest setting. Cut the peppers into quarters, then place them, skin-side up, on a baking sheet. Grill until blackened. Place in a plastic bag, seal, then leave for 5 mins. When cool enough to handle, scrape skins off, discard, then set the peppers aside.
• Place the aubergines on a baking tray, drizzle with olive oil and cinnamon, then season with salt and pepper. Roast until golden and softened - about 25 mins.
• Meanwhile, combine all the dressing ingredients and mix well. To serve, place the aubergines, green beans, onion and peppers on a large serving plate. Scatter with the feta and pomegranate seeds. Pour the dressing over, then finish with the parsley.

Steps:

• Combine all of the ingredients except the olives and romaine in a large bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes toss together, taste and adjust seasonings. Garnish with olives and serve, with pita bread and romaine lettuce if desired.

Steps:

• Whisk together 3 tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, sugar, and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Divide and arrange the tomatoes, onion, arugula, and olives on four plates.
• Cut the feta cheese into 1" cubes. Beat egg in a small bowl and put the flour on a plate. Toss the cheese into the egg and shake off excess. Toss the egg coated cheese in the flour on the plate.
• Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet. Add the cheese and fry over medium heat, turning until all sides are golden brown.
• Scatter the fried feta over the salad. Whisk the dressing again and spoon over the salad. Serve while the feta cheese is still warm.
