Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup long grain white rice, uncooked
2 cups hot water
1 cup cubed feta cheese (or more if you like !)
12 pitted black olives, sliced
1/2 cup finely cubed cucumber
4 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tsp dried ground oregano
salt and pepper , to taste

Directions:

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.
