Sweet Chilli Halloumi

Good Pair Days -
  • 3 red chillies
  • 2 tbsp runny honey
  • ½ lime
  • 225g halloumi, sliced into 8 pieces
  • Your choice of salad leaves
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Start this quick and easy recipe by making a basic sweet chilli sauce. Slice two of the chillies (and leave the seeds in), then finely chop the third and remove the seeds. Add to a small saucepan along with the honey, and squeeze about a tsp of lime juice into the mix. Bring to a bubble on the hob, then turn it down to the lowest setting. Stir frequently for 4 minutes, then remove from the heat.
  • Before you get started on your halloumi, arrange a pair of plates with your favourite salad leaves. Slice the remaining lime half into wedges, and arrange nicely with a drizzle of olive oil.
  • Heat a dry, heavy-based frying pan or griddle. When hot, place the halloumi slices onto it and dry-fry for about a minute on each side. Ideally, you want some nice char lines on them.
  • Place the halloumi slices on top of your salad, and smear the red, sticky chilli sauce on top of the cheese. Eat immediately, and enjoy!
