Preparation

Cut the tomatoes and cucumber into large, irregular chunks (not small dice, an authentic Greek salad is generous and rustic), thinly slice the red onion.
Arrange the tomatoes, cucumber, sliced red onion and olives in a large dish, mixing gently.
Place the feta as a single block on top of the salad, without crumbling it: that's tradition, it gets cut at the table.
Drizzle generously with olive oil and sprinkle dried oregano over the whole salad, including the feta.
Season lightly with salt (careful, the feta and olives are already salty) and serve right away, at room temperature, with good bread to mop up the juices.
