Description
Use a whole block of halloumi!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 × 8.8 oz piece of halloumi
- Olive oil
- 4 apricots
- 2 tablespoons honey
- A few sprigs of oregano or thyme
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high. Carefully score the top of your halloumi in a criss-cross pattern — don’t cut too deep; you want to keep it intact. Rub the cheese with olive oil, in between the cuts, too. Halve the apricots, remove the stones, and halve again into quarters. Place the halloumi in a snug dish (ideally metal) and nestle around the apricots, drizzling them with olive oil, too.
- Pop under the grill, not too close, and grill for 8–10 minutes, so that the fruit starts to caramelize and the halloumi is tender and charred on top. The success of this recipe depends on having the right distance from the grill and heat, so check a few minutes into cooking and see if you need to raise the temperature or lower the grill rack. It’s quite a forgiving technique, so take your time and see what works with your grill. When the halloumi is ready, drizzle with honey and scatter over the oregano or thyme. Serve immediately.
