Method

1. Soak the sliced red onion in ice water with a splash of vinegar for about 10 minutes to mellow its bite, then drain.
2. Combine the tomato wedges, cucumber, bell pepper rings and olives in a large serving bowl, and add the drained onion.
3. Sprinkle with half the oregano and a pinch of salt, then drizzle over the olive oil and red wine vinegar and toss gently.
4. Lay the feta slabs on top and finish with the remaining oregano. Serve right away.
