Ingredients:

  • 1 lb (450g) English cucumber, thinly sliced
  • ½ cup (60g) red onion, thinly slivered
  • ½ cup (75g) Kalamata olives, pitted and halved
  • 4 oz (115g) Feta cheese, crumbled
  • ¼ cup (15g) fresh parsley, chopped
  • 3 tbsp (45ml) extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp (5g) granulated sugar
  • ½ tsp (3g) dried oregano
  • ½ tsp (3g) kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp (1g) black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Toss the sliced cucumbers with a pinch of salt in a colander and let them sit for 20–30 minutes to remove excess water.
  2. Combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar, sugar, oregano, salt, and pepper in a small jar. Shake vigorously until the sugar dissolves and the oil and vinegar are fully combined into a glossy emulsion.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the drained cucumbers, red onion, and olives.
  4. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss gently.
  5. Fold in the crumbled feta and fresh parsley using a spatula to avoid crushing the cheese.
