Method

Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil, then add the pasta and cook for 8 minutes or until al dente, still with some bite. Drain and rinse with cold water.
Meanwhile, put the olive oil, sun-dried tomato oil, lemon juice and honey in a large bowl and whisk together into a dressing. Season with plenty of salt and black pepper.
Add the onion, tomatoes and olives to the dressing along with the sun-dried tomatoes and the drained, cooled pasta. Add two thirds of the oregano and toss together until everything is combined and coated with the dressing.

Tip out into a large serving bowl or platter and top with the whole block of feta. Season again, drizzle over a little more oil and scatter over the remaining oregano. Serve in the centre of the table so everyone can dig in.
