This ubiquitous summer salad has become synonymous with lazy summer lunches in Greek tavernas by the sea.

1 Combine all the ingredients except the oregano, oil and vinegar in a salad bowl. Just before serving, sprinkle the salad with the oregano, season with freshly ground black pepper and dress with the olive oil and red wine vinegar.

2. makis Sun 28 Feb 2010 @ 18:52 Hi let me just add that the classic Greek Horiatiki doesn't necessarily has pepper and vinegar. But its great to see the recipe here.
