Ambrosia™ Apple & Honey Salsa with Grilled Halloumi
INGREDIENTS
- Zest and juice of ½ a lemon
- 1 tablespoon runny honey
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped oregano, plus extra for garnish
- 1 Ambrosia™ apple
- ½ cup radish sprouts or other leaves (optional but excellent)
- 200g Halloumi block
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
METHOD
- Make the salsa dressing by combining the lemon zest, juice, honey, olive oil, chopped oregano and a few cracks of freshly ground black pepper, in a small bowl, whisk and set aside.
- Cut the apple into 3mm x 3mm cubes (I find slicing this type of apple into rings, then stacking and slicing again into batons, and then dicing works best). Toss apple cubes through the dressing to coat, and pop in the fridge to chill for at least 15 minutes to let the ingredients get friendly.
- Heat a heavy-bottomed pan on medium heat. Oil the haloumi liberally, then pop a square of baking paper in the bottom of the pan, and the haloumi block on top. Cook until the cheese is quite browned, then flip and cook on the other side – around 3 minutes a side should do it. Drain on kitchen towel, and cut on the diagonal into thick slices.
- Arrange your chosen leaves with a flourish at the base of your serving plate, and perch the haloumi slices on top. Pop plenty of apple salsa across the haloumi, and finish with the reserved oregano, another crack of pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve immediately.
