Ingredients

  • 1 large day-old pitta bread
  • olive oil, for brushing
  • 250 g mixed tomatoes such as heirloom ox heart, kumato and/or mixed cherry tomatoes
  • 1 baby cos lettuce, washed and torn into large pieces
  • 150 g feta, coarsely crumbled
  • 2 sprigs oregano, leaves picked
  • 2 tsp za'atar
  • ½ pomegranate, seeded, optional
Dressing
  • 1 garlic clove, left whole
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • ¼ tsp sea salt

Instructions

  1. For the dressing, place all the ingredients in a jar, seal and shake well. Stand for 1 hour.
  2. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180ºC. Place the pitta bread on a baking tray and brush all over with oil. Bake for 8–10 minutes or until lightly golden and crisp. Break into bite-sized pieces.  
  3. Cut the tomatoes into a mixture of bite-sized slices, chunks and rounds for texture and variety.
