Marinated Greek Feta - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    500 g Greek feta cheese
    1 1/2 cups olive oil
    1/4 cup cracked black pepper
    1/2 teaspoon dried greek oregano leaves
    1 bay leaf
    500 g marinated greek kalamata olives
    crusty bread, to serve
Preparation
    Cut the feta cheese into 2cm cubes and place them in a shallow, ceramic dish. Combine the oil, pepper, oregano and bay leaf in a jug, pour this over the feta and cover and refrigerate overnight (or longer if time permits).
    Serve the feta on a mezze platter with olives, skordalia (recipe posted separately) and crusty bread.
    Note: Refrigeration makes oil \"cloudy\". If you remove the marinated feta from the refrigerator 1 hour before serving, the \"cloudiness\" will disperse, and the oil will be clear.
