Ingredients

• ½ cup of extra virgin olive oil
• 6 tomatoes (grated)
• 200g feta (crumbled)
• 1 shallot (diced)
• 165g drained kalamata pitted olives (chopped)
• 1 tbsp oregano
• 1 handful parsley (chopped)
• Sprinkling of salt and pepper

To serve

• 1 loaf of ciabatta (or gluten-free sourdough if you’re gluten-free)

Method

1. Arrange all of the ingredients on a large serving platter and gently combine. If any tomato skin remains after grating, finely chop it and add it to the platter to avoid wasting any of the tomato.
2. Serve with toasted or lightly grilled ciabatta slices for dipping.
