Challenge #29: Fried Things: halloumi & orange salad
Yes, this is far too simple, and also late. also my dog ate my homework. But it turned out totally party-in-my-mouth gorgeous so I thought I'd share.
One serving:
Three slices, maybe 4mm thick, from a block of halloumi.
Half a large orange.
About 5cm of pickled cucumber (I like the brined sort, not the vinegary sort; recipe here).
Sprig of dill.
Fry the halloumi in a frying pan with a tiny drop of oil, until it's got some dark brown patches on it among the white, on both sides. Then cut the slices in halves or quarters.
While that's doing, halve the orange pole-to-pole and (carefully!) pare the peel, pith, and membranes off the outside. Slice into thin slices (3mm-ish). Segmenty-bits will separate.
Slice the cucumber thinly (I went for long thin slices rather than rounds)
Arrange the orange, cucumber, and halloumi on a plate; sprinkle with finely-chopped fresh dill.
