Ingredients

  • 500g mixed ripe tomatoes
  • 1 cucumber, cut into half moons
  • 1 red onion, finely sliced
  • 60g pitted olives, roughly chopped
  • 1½ tsp dried oregano
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 3 wholemeal or white pittas
  • 1 x 225g pack light or regular halloumi, sliced
  • 1 tbsp clear honey
  • 1½ tbsp sesame seeds

Step by step

  1. Roughly chop the tomatoes: cut small ones in half and larger ones into wedges. Mix with the cucumber, red onion, olives, oregano, extra-virgin olive oil and red wine vinegar in a bowl; season generously. Toast the pittas until crisp, then tear up roughly and mix into the salad.
  2. Heat a nonstick frying pan until hot, then dry-fry the halloumi slices until crisp and brown, about 2 minutes on each side. Drizzle the honey into the pan and scatter over the sesame seeds. Give everything a good mix so that each piece of halloumi is sticky and coated in the sesame seeds.
  3. Divide the salad between 4 plates and top with the sesame halloumi.
