Honey-Glazed Halloumi + White Bean Salad with Creamy Herb Dressing

This is a version of a "green goddess" dressing - herby, bright, creamy - except we're using yogurt instead of mayo for a slightly lighter, fresher twist, that is just as delicious. Slather that all over crunchy lettuce, creamy white beans, sliced cucumber and top it all off with sticky, slightly spicy halloumi for the ideal flavour + texture contrast. Ideal for an easy lunch or sharing salad.

Directions

1

First, add the honey, chilli flakes and juice of half a lemon to a small mixing bowl and mix well to combine. Add the diced halloumi and toss well to coat. Set aside.

2

Add all the dressing ingredients to a blender or food processor with a pinch of salt and blend until smooth and creamy - you’re looking for a consistency similar to a thick double cream. Taste and adjust seasoning. Loosen with a splash of water if it’s too thick. Set aside.

3

Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Fry the halloumi cubes for 5-6 mins until golden on all sides, turning frequently.

4

To assemble, in a large bowl or platter, toss together the lettuce, cucumber, white beans and avocado, if using. Season lightly with salt + pepper.

5

Drizzle over the herby dressing and top with sticky halloumi. Serve straight away while the halloumi is hot.
