Mixed Heirloom tomatoes on a bed of toasted golden Haloumi and red onion and finished with fresh herbs and basil. This is a perfect dish to serve in summer when tomatoes are at their flavor filled best, the combination of fruity tomatoes with squeaky textured toasted Haloumi and fresh herbs is just amazing

Ingredients:

1 180g pack Lemnos Haloumi
1 punnet Heirloom tomatoes, sliced
2 very ripe large tomatoes, sliced
1 small red onion, peeled and thinly sliced
extra virgin olive oil for drizzling
basil leaves
dukkah (optional)
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method:

Cut the Lemnos Haloumi in thin wedges and brush a large frying pan or a barbecue flat plate with a little olive oil. Fry the Haloumi gently on a medium heat until it’s a delicious golden brown.
On a serving plate pile the sliced tomatoes, toasted Haloumi and red onion. Season with a little salt and black pepper and then finish the dish with a drizzle of good quality extra virgin olive oil and a scattering of fresh basil leaves and dukkah if your using it.

Serve as an easy entrée or as a side dish.
