Directions

In a larger pot  sauté  onion and garlic in olive oil over low heat until almost soft. Add thick slices of potatoes and sauté another 3-4 minutes, careful not to burn.
Add remaining water. Bring to a boil and lower to a simmer. Cook uncovered for 40 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender.
Add salt, pepper , oregano, tomato paste and chopped tomatoes. Cook on low heat for 10 minutes, adding parsley when you get to 8 minutes or so.

FOIL BAKED FETA CHEESE

Α traditional Greek baked feta recipe (or feta bouyiourdi) made with only a few ingredients and in less than 20 minutes!

The main ingredient you will need to make this Greek baked feta recipe is of course feta cheese which is a favorite ingredient in all types of Greek recipes. For the topping use the juiciest tomatoes you can find, some sliced red onions and spice it up with some hot chilly peppers.  The key to this Greek dish is to bake everything wrapped in aluminium foil nice and slowly, until all of the flavours have been released and the baked feta is simmering in all the delicious juices, until softened.

Ingredients

a block of feta

1 tomato

1/2 red onion

1/2 hot chili pepper

1 tbsp extra  olive oil

1/2 tsp dry oregano

Directions

Slice the onion and pepper into rings or half rings and chop the tomato into small cubes.

Place the block of feta on some aluminum foil and top with the tomato, onion and pepper. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with oregano. Wrap the feta cheese with the aluminum foil and place on a baking tray.

Bake in preheated oven at 180C until the vegetables have softened, for about 20 minutes.

Serve the baked feta as it  (with the aluminium foil), with some crusted bread.
