GREEK RICE SALAD
This is a quick and simple rice salad. The creamy feta blends beautifully with the black olives. If you leave out the cucumber, this is also lovely served warm. I like the flavour as it is but if you don't like vinaigrette tart, feel free to reduce the amount of red wine vinegar to 2 tablespoons.

Steps:
- Cook the rice in the hot water, simmering over a low heat in a covered pan for around 20 minutes, until all the water has been absorbed.
- When the rice is fully cooked, remove from the heat and allow to cool, for about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the vinaigrette- in a bowl, beat the olive oil and red wine vinegar until they are completely blended. Add the ground oregano and salt and pepper to taste.
- When the rice is cool, add the cubed feta, black olives, cucumber and vinaigrette.
- Stir to mix and put in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavours to blend.
