Mains
- Warm Halloumi and Chickpea Salad
Ingredients
For 4 Person(s)
Ingredients
- 2 390g cans of chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 1/4 red pepper, diced
- 1 stick of celery, diced
- Salt & pepper
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh coriander
- 1 tsp oregano
- 3/4 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tbsp olive oil + extra for greasing the frying pan
- 200 g cherry tomatoes
- 1 clove of garlic, partly crushed
- Mixed green salad leaves (e.g. spinach, watercress and rocket) Allow one handful per portion.
- 250 g halloumi cut into 8 slices
Directions
- Place the drained chickpeas into a mixing bowl. Add the celery, red pepper, coriander and cumin and season generously.
- Mix well and then add the lime juice. Mix again and place to one side.
- Add the olive oil to a small roasting dish. Add the cherry tomatoes and the oregano and season with salt and pepper. Crush an unpeeled garlic clove with a pestle or end of a rolling pin and add to the pan. Ensure all the tomatoes are coated with the oil and seasoning. Roast at 200° for 20 minutes.
- Lightly oil a frying pan (preferably a ridged, cast iron one) and fry the halloumi until golden on both sides.
- To assemble the salad, divide up the chickpea mix between the bowls. Top with a handful of salad leaves and spoon the roasted tomatoes over the leaves. Arrange the halloumi slices on top and eat straightaway.
