Dice the onion and finely chop the garlic and fry in a pan in the oil until translucent. Just before cooking, add half a tablespoon of thyme and toss to coat in the oil. The thyme flavor comes through better if you add a little of it to the onions. Be careful that it doesn’t burn! This happens quicker than you think with thyme. Dice the tomatoes and ring the olives and add them to the pan with the remaining thyme, salt and pepper. Cook on a medium heat with the lid closed for about 15 minutes. Let it simmer gently. The flavor of the tomato and oil really infuses itself during this time. Dice the feta cheese, add it and cook with the lid closed for about 4 minutes. Serve with ciabatta or baguette and a good Italian red wine.
