Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

3.5 ounces feta cheese ((Try to buy an entire thick slice - I prefer Greek))
9 ounces cherry tomatoes (cut in half)
½ red pepper (sliced into smallish strips)
½ green pepper (sliced into smallish strips (or just use 1 green or red pepper))
¼ medium onion ((¼ to ½) sliced thinly)
15 Kalamata olives (stoned and chopped in half (or leave whole but buy stoned olives))
½ tablespoon dried oregano
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil (plus a little extra)
1 teaspoon paprika
black pepper to taste

Steps:

Pre-heat the oven to 190C/375F. Put the tomato halves, pepper pieces, onion and olives into a small to medium baking dish (around 8 inch x 8 inch or similar).
Sprinkle over the oregano and pour over the olive oil. Mix well.
Clear a gap in the middle of the vegetables. Nestle the block of feta in it.
Sprinkle the whole dish with the paprika and some black pepper (to taste). Drizzle the top of the cheese with a little more olive oil.
Bake for 30 minutes until the vegetables are starting to bubble and brown and the feta is soft.
Serve immediately with fresh toasted bread (everyone serves themselves onto individual plates).
