Cooking Notes
Three large farmers market were quite enough. I used a good old farmers market cucumber, peeled and seeded, a tablespoon each of chopped mint and oregano from the garden, and sherry vinegar. Delicious.
Needs red onion then perfect
Cooking time 2 minutes! No way, unless everything was already prepped.

We made this in Italy with all the above ingredients except fresh mozzarella rather than feta (hard to get here) and castelveltrano olives (again nowhere nears as easy to get fresh here). We didn't add either mint or oregano.
