Categories     Salad

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 red peppers
1 green pepper
1 aubergine
2 zucchinis
1 red onion
2 cloves of garlic (skins on)
olive oil
thyme, rosemary
salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 of a cup extra virgin olive oil
1/3 of a cup water
1 tsp mustard
2 tbsps lemon juice
some fresh herbs (basil, mint, parsley)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200C and prepare the vegetables for the halloumi salad. Halve and deseed the peppers and cut each half into 4 pieces. Cut the red onion into 8 wedges. Halve the zucchinis lengthways and then slice into 2cm chunks. Top and tail the aubergine, cut it in half and slice. Place all the vegetables (and the garlic) in a large baking tray and sprinkle with some fresh thyme and rosemary leaves. Season and drizzle with some olive oil and toss them to coat. Roast the vegetables for about 35 minutes, until golden, soft and cooked through. While the veggies are cooking, get them a good stir every now and again.
  • To prepare the dressing for the halloumi salad (oil and lemon sauce/ ladolemono), add into a blender all the ingredients and blend, until combined.
  • Place the Halloumi cheese in a hot frying or griddle pan and cook until it turns golden brown, turning half way through cooking (about a minute on each side).
  • Assemble the Halloumi salad. Put the leafy greens and the roasted vegetables in a large salad bowl. Pour in the sauce (be careful not to add too much sauce, because the greens will become wilt and no longer crunchy). Toss to coat everything in the dressing; have a taste and add some more seasoning, if needed. Tear the Halloumi into pieces over the salad and serve while still warm. Enjoy!

GRILLED-HALLOUMI-AND-VEGETABLE WRAPS



Grilled-Halloumi-and-Vegetable Wraps image

Here's a 30-minute vegetarian dinner you'll want to make on repeat. Halloumi cheese is perfect for the grill (or grill pan), it's charred along with bell peppers, zucchini, and radicchio and wrapped up in a warm tortilla for easy eating.

Provided by Lauryn Tyrell

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2/3 cup labneh or Greek yogurt
1 small clove garlic, grated
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided, plus more for grill
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 packages halloumi (each 6 to 8 ounces), cut into 1/2-inch planks
2 small heads radicchio or endive, cut into 1-inch wedges
1 zucchini, cut into 3/4-inch slices
1 orange or yellow bell pepper, quartered and seeded
4 large (10-inch) whole-wheat or corn-flour-blend tortillas
Fresh basil leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • Whisk together labneh, garlic, 1 tablespoon oil, and a pinch of salt. Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Drizzle cheese, radicchio, zucchini, and bell pepper with remaining oil; season vegetables with salt and pepper.
  • Brush grates with oil and grill vegetables, flipping once, until tender and charred in places, about 8 minutes total. Transfer to a plate; cover to keep warm. Grill cheese, flipping once, until charred in places and hot, 3 to 4 minutes total. Blister tortillas over grill, flipping once, then transfer to a clean towel to keep warm.
  • To serve, smear labneh mixture over each tortilla, pile with vegetables and cheese, and scatter with basil. Fold and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right halloumi: Look for halloumi that is firm and has a slightly rubbery texture. Avoid halloumi that is too soft or crumbly.
  • Slice the halloumi properly: Cut the halloumi into 1/2-inch thick slices. This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from sticking to the grill.
  • Marinate the halloumi: Marinating the halloumi in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs will help it stay moist and flavorful during grilling.
  • Grill the halloumi over medium heat: This will help prevent the halloumi from burning. Cook the halloumi for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it is golden brown and slightly charred.
  • Serve the halloumi immediately: Halloumi is best served immediately after it is grilled. You can serve it with a variety of sides, such as grilled vegetables, salad, or pita bread.

Conclusion:

Grilled halloumi is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. It is a great way to add some Mediterranean flavor to your next meal. With its salty, tangy, and slightly chewy texture, grilled halloumi is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to cook halloumi, give this recipe a try!
