Ingredients

Baked Potatoes

Salad Topping

  • 5 oz (140 g) low fat feta cheese
  • 1 handful olives

  • ¾ cup (130 g) chickpeas, cooked
  • 1 small red onion (or 3 spring onions)
  • ½ lemon (juiced)
  • 1 clove garlic (peeled and diced)
  • 1 handful basil, fresh (dried is ok as well, but use less)
  • ½ tsp cumin, ground
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper
  • ¼ tsp black pepper (freshly ground)
  • 1 tsp olive oil

Instructions

Baked Potatoes

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
  • Wash the potatoes and rub a coat of olive oil and salt on the skin.
  • Next, put them on a baking tray and layer of foil. Off they go in the oven.

  • Depending on the size of the potato they’ll be ready somewhere around 45 min. If the potatoes are massive then slice them length-ways before cooking to save time.

Salad Topping

  • While they’re cooking, cut or crumble the feta cheese, cut olives, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, peel and dice the onion. Together with the chickpeas mix it all up in a salad bowl.
    Greek Salad
  • Juice the lemon, grate the garlic, chop the fresh basil.
  • Put the basil, cumin, cayenne pepper, ground pepper, grated garlic, olive oil and lemon juice in a cup and stir well.
  • Add the contents of the cup to the salad bowl and stir well.
  • When the potatoes are ready (cut them open if they’re not already) pop them on a plate and layer the salad mix on top.
  • Finally, add an optional dollop of Greek yogurt or natural plain yogurt.
