Grilled Haloumi And Watermelon Salad Recipes

HALLOUMI AND WATERMELON SALAD

Steps:

• Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large, nonstick skillet over high heat. Fry the cheese, turning occasionally, until golden brown on at least two sides, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove to a plate.
• To make the dressing, add 10 to 12 mint leaves, 10 to 12 basil leaves, 1/4 cup olive oil and some salt to a small food processor. Blend until smooth.
• Arrange the watermelon cubes and halloumi on a platter. Drizzle with some of the dressing and garnish with more mint and basil leaves. Serve with grilled bread and extra dressing on the side.

GRILLED HALLOUMI AND WATERMELON KEBOBS

Steps:

• Set up your grill for direct heat by spreading the coals evenly along the bottom. On each skewer, alternately thread the halloumi and watermelon. Drizzle with olive oil and season with pepper. Place on the grill and char, about 1 minute. Flip and char the other side for 30 to 40 seconds. You are looking for grill marks on the watermelon and for the halloumi to get slightly soft. Remove to a platter and drizzle with hot honey. Sprinkle mint over the top and serve.

HALLOUMI, WATERMELON & MINT SALAD

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Lay the cheese on a baking tray in a single layer, then grill for 2 mins on each side until golden. Toss the watermelon, beans and mint together with the lemon juice and olive oil, season well, then layer on plates with the slices of halloumi.
• Drizzle with a little more oil if you like, and then serve with warm pittas.

Steps:

• Halve the watermelon lengthways. Slice into eighths, cut away the skin and pith and then slice into 1cm thick slices to make small triangles. Place the melon in a large bowl and add all the herbs.
• Heat a griddle pan until very hot and griddle the halloumi slices for 30 secs on each side until well browned. Cool for a few moments before adding to the salad.
• Whisk the lemon juice and olive oil together and season to taste. Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately with griddled or toasted Italian bread.
