Maroulosalata (Classic Greek Lettuce Salad)
By: bluemoon downunder
Oct 20, 2005
Another recipe which I found in Greek chef and restaurateur Theodore Kyriakou’s ‘real greek food', which he co-authored with food writer Charles Campion. So simple, so delicious and so quintessentially Greek! A really quick to make, fabulous side dish to serve with grilled meat and fish dishes, or with pasta and rice dishes. This recipe - for a classic lettuce salad - is from the island of Cos and, apparently, "from everywhere else in Greece"! When you come across a recipe like this one, you cannot be in the least surprised that Kyriakou maintains that “the term “Greek Salad” is one of the most abused in the world”.
SERVES 4
Ingredients
- 150 ml extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 1 romaine lettuce, shredded very finely
- 1 bunch spring onion, finely chopped, including the green parts
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped dill weed
- sea salt, to taste
- fresh ground pepper, to taste
Directions
1
Mix the oil and vinegar together in a bowl, add the salt and pepper, to taste.2
Combine the ingredients and toss with the dressing, and serve immediately. This salad should be crunchy, not soggy.

LOVED IT! I've made it three days in a row now...can't get enough of this light tasting, refreshing salad. I'm including a shake of garlic salt and some shredded parmesan too. Thank you Bluemoon Downunder, this is a keeper for sure! Made for Potluck Tag, please see my rating system as I rate tougher than most.

We love this simple salad. It is very popular here in Greece, especially in winter, and often accompanies a rich, roast meat and is eaten to 'clean the mouth'. Lemon juice is also good in the vinaigrette instead of vinegar. This recipe is 100% authentic.

I bought the prepackaged romaine lettuce, mixed together the dressing, and enjoyed! This is a very nice fresh tasting salad and perfect when I want a salad without all the extra's added in.
