Roughly chop the garlic and then add the oregano, salt and pepper. Chop the mixture together and use the side of a knife to make a grainy herbal paste.

Transfer to a large salad bowl, add the lemon juice and vinegar. Mix with a fork, then add the oil and whisk with the fork until well combined.

Gently fold the beans, red onion, cheese and salami into the dressing one at a time.

Halve the tomatoes lengthwise and season with 1 ½ teaspoons sea salt. Set aside.

When ready to serve the salad, gently add the tomatoes, lettuce and red cabbage to the salad bowl. Toss to combine with the dressing.
