Ingredients

  • 3 cups fresh purslane, washed and thoroughly dried

  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion

  • 1/4 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and halved

  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Preparation steps

Step 1

Wash and dry the purslane thoroughly. Trim any thick stems and gently tear larger pieces into bite-sized segments.


Step 2

In a large salad bowl, combine the prepared purslane, crumbled feta cheese, thinly sliced red onion, halved Kalamata olives, and halved cherry tomatoes.


Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper until well combined.


Step 4

Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients.


Step 5

Gently toss the salad to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing. Be careful not to break up the feta too much.


Step 6

Taste the salad and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt, pepper, or a splash more vinegar or oil to your liking.


Step 7

Serve immediately as a refreshing appetizer, side dish, or light lunch.
