Creamy Greek Salad Dressing
Here I present my easy recipe for a homemade Creamy Greek Salad dressing with lemon juice, garlic and oregano – whipped to a tangy, fluffy perfection 🙂
In my (many) younger days, I worked as a server at a restaurant called Gabriel’s. They have the most incredible food ( almost as good as mine!!!)
I used to be young!!!
One of my favourite go-to’s was (sadly I haven’t been there in years) their Greek Salad, either with a grilled salmon fillet or with a half pizza – Americana pizza, to be precise.
The chef’s father, Bill told me the recipe for the dressing and somehow I forgot!!! Omg… how!?! How did I forget?
Anyway, I think this dressing is close… it certainly is delicious 🤤
This is how you make it
Use a food processor or blender; mix the egg, Dijon, salt and pepper until smooth.
Slowly drizzle in the oil and continue to mix until it thickens.
Add in the lemon juice, garlic powder and oregano.
Taste and adjust seasoning.
Transfer to a jar with a tight-fitting lid and refrigerate.
Then you build your salad
Iceberg lettuce…
with red onion…
tomato,
Feta cheese…
Kalmata olives…
Topped with this dressing…
Oh my goodness…
yep.
yum 🙂
