This takes about 1 to 2 minutes per side. 4 Take your plates & place little gem lettuce leaves all over the plate nicely. Add the golden Halloumi slices in a round & drizzzle the dressing over the top & place a bit into the middle. 5 Serve with torn pices or slices of Turkish bread. 6 Enjoy!

About


This is a lovely & easy salad with fried Halloumi slices & an apart dressing. The dressing is a bit tangy & goes so well with the fried Halloumi. I usually, serve it with torn pieces of Turkish bread topped with sesame seeds. So, you can mop up the juices.
Lovely !
