Ingredients
- 1x block halloumi cheese
- 2 large flatbreads
- Tzatziki (see recipe below)
- Pomegranate seeds
- Fresh mint, finely sliced
- Boyne Valley Hot Honey
- For the tzatziki*
- ½ cucumber
- 170g Greek yoghurt
- 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill
- 1 large clove garlic, finely minced
- 1-2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- Generous pinch flaky salt
Method
- 1. * If making your own tzatziki, prepare this first and leave to chill, covered, in the fridge until needed. See recipe at the end.
- 2. Cut the block of halloumi into about 8 slices, then brush the slices with olive oil.
- 3. Pre-heat a large pan (or grill or barbecue) then cook the halloumi slices until golden on both sides, about 2 minutes each side.
- 4. While the halloumi cooks, warm the flatbreads in a dry pan over medium heat, or in a lower shelf in the oven or off direct heat on the barbecue.
- 5. To assemble, spread 1-2 generous spoons of tzatziki on one half of both warmed flatbreads, then arrange the halloumi slices on top.
- 6. Scatter pomegranate seeds and fresh mint on top, then finish with a drizzle of hot honey.
- 7. Fold flatbread over to close, then enjoy immediately.
- 8. * To prepare the tzatziki, cut the cucumber in half lengthways then use a spoon to scrape the seeds out, discard the seeds.
- 9. Grate the cucumber into a medium sized bowl, then transfer the cucumber to a sieve and press out as much excess water as possible with the back of a large spoon.
- 10. Return the cucumber to the bowl then add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Taste for seasoning and add more lemon juice or salt if preferred, then cover and chill in the fridge.
- 11. Store leftover tzatziki in an airtight container in the fridge for up to about 3 days.
