This marinated feta holds a special place in my fridge and my heart as the original Fridge Basic. I discovered it many years after eating it as part of a mezze spread somewhere in the sunshine and immediately came home to devise my own version. Taking only minutes to assemble and with infinite flavour variations, it is a multi-use condiment, adding an unexpected lift to salads, omelettes and frittatas, superb spread on sandwiches, a key ingredient in a buffet spread, ideal cocktail accompaniment and a perfect sneaky nibble while standing with the fridge door open and looking for inspiration (I know I am not alone here as a seasoned fridge snacker).  Like all the best things, there is a bonus. The oil left behind by the last piece of salty deliciousness is an extra flavour treat when tossed through steamed greens, veg and grains, as a salad dressing base and for searing a little protein for a quick throw together meal.
