Orange salad with paprika and olives
January 21, 2019
The origin of the cheapest, easiest and most aromatic salad that the Odd Fork has ever pinched, is lost in the depths of time and the branches of its family tree. The once little Fork would often see its grandmother preparing this salad for a light dinner. Since then, the whole family loved her recipe.
It is already revealed from the tittle that the basic ingredient, is orange! And a couple of more stuff easily found at home.
For the plate in the photo above, the Odd Fork peeled and sliced two medium oranges. Greek Merlin oranges are the best. It drizzled with good quality virgin Greek olive oil and seasoned with salt and sweet red paprika, the spice which is widely loved in the beautiful island of Corfu. The Odd Fork also added some Greek black olives from Kalamata (a.k.a. Kalamon Olives) and the salad was ready!
With this as a base, some people in Corfu or Epirus add onion (fresh spring onion or bulb onion) and Greek feta cheese. Odd Fork's favorite option is with no onion, just with olives and feta cheese. It loves to dunk fresh bread into the salad juices while eating the salad, the orange - paprika flavored olive oil is so perfectly matched with the feta cheese and the salad is a full, balanced meal for it.
Of course, you can serve this salad with fish or chicken fillet and drink with it a nice, fruity white wine!

Wonderful accomplishments. Wish my hit and miss borders looked so goo. I think my problem is that usually (for me) it is a way to get rid of left over strips so mine looks messy. Yours has a rhythm and consistency which mine never has. Will save a copy of yours as a GOOD example of what hit and miss should look like.
