1 400g tin chickpeas, drained
1/2 a sweet red onion
100g feta cheese, crumbled
a generous handful of fresh basil leaves
12-15 pitted olives, sliced
3-4 Tbsp mild olive oil
lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste
Chop the onion very finely and chiffonade the basil leaves. In a large bowl, mix the chickpeas, basil, onion, sliced olives and crumbled feta cheese. Add the olive oil and a glug of lemon juice, toss well and check for seasoning. Add a good grind of black pepper and salt to taste. If you want this as a warm salad, prepare everything else and then heat the chickpeas, either in the microwave or on the stovetop in their canning liquid. Drain, mix as above and serve warm.
