Method
step 1
Place all of the marinade ingredients into a shallow dish, and place the slices of halloumi in the dish- mix to coat well, and cover. Allow to marinade in a cool place or in the fridge, for as long as you can muster. Ten minutes will suffice under time-stretched circumstances.step 2
Pop the chopped cucumber, mango and avo into a bowl.step 3
Remove the cheese slices from the marinade and barbecue, fry or grill your slices; remembering to baste them as they cook with the leftover marinade, and ensure there is a charred crust to the cheese. Each side of the cheese will take approximately 2 minutes to grill properly.step 4
Remove, and when the cheese is cool enough to handle, chop into cubes.step 5
Add these immediately to the rest of the chopped ingredients, squeeze a little lemon juice over the salad, give one final mix, and there you go.
