Warm Halloumi With Radish Apple Pecan Salad Recipes

WARM WINTER VEGETABLE SALAD WITH HALLOUMI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with 1 Tbsp. oil. Mix garlic, salt, Aleppo-style pepper, and 3 Tbsp. oil in a large bowl. Add cabbage, onion, and squash and toss to coat. Spread out on prepared baking sheet (keep bowl handy) and roast until squash is browned underneath, 25-30 minutes.
• Toss pita, Halloumi, and remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in reserved bowl. Scatter over vegetables, then turn vegetables over with a large spatula. Roast until squash is fork-tender and cabbage, onion, pita, and Halloumi are browned in spots (cheese should be soft inside), 15-20 minutes. Remove from oven and drizzle with vinegar. Top with sumac and mint.

WARM HALLOUMI WITH RADISH, APPLE & PECAN SALAD

Steps:

• To make the dressing, whisk together the lime juice, mustard, honey, oil and some seasoning. Pour half into a large bowl, add the sliced apples and pears, then gently toss everything together so all the fruit is coated. Cover and set aside. The fruit will sit happily now for up to 3 hrs without browning.
• When you're ready to eat, warm a large frying pan over a medium heat. Season the slices of halloumi with pepper (it doesn't need any salt as it's quite a salty cheese), then fry in batches for 2-3 mins on each side until the cheese is golden brown and beginning to crisp. You can keep the halloumi warm in a low oven while you fry the rest.
• At the last minute, scoop the apples and pears out of the dressing (it will have gone watery with the moisture of the fruit, so discard), and layer up on a large platter with the radishes, carrot sticks, pecans and lamb's lettuce. Top with the hot halloumi slices, then drizzle over the remaining dressing.
