Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by washing the arugula and cherry tomatoes thoroughly. Halve the cherry tomatoes and set them aside. Peel the red onion and slice it thinly. Finely chop the fresh mint and set it aside as well.

  2. 2

    Slice the Halloumi

    Cut the halloumi cheese into 1 cm thick slices. This thickness will ensure that the cheese holds its shape while grilling.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat. Lightly oil the grill grates with a brush or a paper towel dipped in olive oil to prevent sticking.

  2. 4

    Grill the Halloumi

    Place the halloumi slices on the grill. Grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the cheese is golden brown with grill marks. Remove from the grill and set aside.

Serving

  1. 5

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the arugula, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced red onion. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss gently to combine.

  2. 6

    Add Grilled Halloumi

    Top the salad with the grilled halloumi cheese slices and sprinkle the chopped fresh mint over everything.

  3. 7

    Serve Immediately

    Serve the grilled halloumi salad immediately while the cheese is still warm. Enjoy your delicious and healthy dish!
