150g halloumi
400g frozen garden peas
4 Essential Salad Onions
1 tbsp olive oil
1 lemon, juice
Pinch dried chilli flakes
4 slice/s multi-seeded bread
4 large free range eggs, fried or poached (optional)

Drain and pat dry the halloumi, then coarsely grate. Cook in a nonstick frying pan for 10 minutes, stirring regularly – the halloumi will be a little wet initially, gradually becoming crisp and golden.
Meanwhile, cook peas in a pan of boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain well, then tip into a bowl and crush with a masher. Stir in salad onions, finely chopped, then add the oil and a squeeze of lemon juice. Season and add an optional pinch of dried chilli flakes.
Divide the peas between 4 slices of seeded toast and scatter over the halloumi crumbs. For a more substantial snack, top each slice with a fried or poached egg, if you wish.
