  • 1 tsp red chilli flakes
  • 2 small garlic cloves thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Pitta Chips

  • 4 white pitta bread torn into pieces
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika I use 1

Salad

  • 1/2 cucumber halved lengthways, deseeded and roughly chopped

  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp dried oregano

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to gas mark 6.
  • To make the chips, put the torn pittas on a baking tray and drizzle with the oil. Scatter with paprika and bake for 15 minutes until crisp and golden.

  • Toss the salad ingredients in a bowl, then top with the feta and serve with pitta chips.

Notes

Variations & FAQ's

  • This salad keeps well in an airtight container for up to 4 days in the fridge. If you keep all the elements separate, it will last up to a week.
  • You can use Cherry or Plum Baby Tomatoes in this Salad.
  • Removing the seeds from the Cucumber helps to keep the salad from getting too wet.
  • You can bake the pitta and feta together for around 12 minutes.
  • Use Black or Green Olives.
  • Variation - Add a drizzle of Honey to the Feta before serving and sprinkle over some Zataar. 
  • The Feta can be cooked longer for a creamier result. I have left it up to 25 minutes before. You can also cover it with foil but I don't.
