Method
 

Preparation
  1. Boil the eggs: Place your eggs in a pot filled with cold water. Bring it to a gentle boil over medium heat. Let simmer for 7–8 minutes for a perfect jammy center. Avoid boiling too long to prevent a chalky texture.
  2. Slice and chop: While the eggs cook, slice the tomatoes and cucumber, chop the parsley, and cube the feta. Keep your workspace tidy while doing this.
Assembly
  1. Once the eggs are done, peel them under cold running water. Arrange the eggs, tomatoes, cucumbers, parsley, olives, and feta on a large plate for a colorful presentation.
  2. Season the assembled ingredients with paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper to enhance the flavors.
  3. Finish with pomegranate seeds and lemon wedges on the side for added color and flavor.
