    Halloumi and Tomato Salad

    Oiling the grill before adding the Halloumi stops it from sticking; grill it on the coolest part of the barbecue so that it doesn’t burn.

    • Preparation time: 10 minutes
    • Cooking time: 5 minutes
    • Total time: 15 minutes 15 minutes

    Serves: 4

    Ingredients

    • 2 large tomatoes
    • 10 cherry tomatoes
    • 250g halloumi
    • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, plus extra for brushing
    • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
    • 5g mint

    Method

    1. Heat the barbecue. Slice the large tomatoes and halve the cherry tomatoes; reserve any juices that are released. Season well.
    2. Slice the Halloumi into fingers. Oil the grill and cook the cheese on both sides until well marked. Whisk the olive oil and vinegar together with some sea salt and pepper, then whisk in any tomato juices.
    3. Arrange the tomatoes and Halloumi on a large serving platter. Scatter with mint and drizzle with the dressing.

    Drinks recommendation

    A zingy blend of shiraz and malbec, served chilled if you like, is gulpably good with grilled Halloumi and its hint of mint.
