Pairing

Halloumi, Watermelon & Mint

Warm, savoury Halloumi PDO meets cool, sweet watermelon and fresh mint in a refreshing Mediterranean pairing. The contrast between the golden, salty cheese and juicy watermelon creates a simple combination that works particularly well as a summer appetizer or sharing plate.

Cut the Halloumi PDO into even slices approximately 1–1.5 cm thick.

Heat a dry grill pan or non-stick pan until hot. Add the Halloumi and cook for approximately 1–2 minutes on each side, until a deep golden crust develops while the centre remains firm.

Meanwhile, cut the watermelon into bite-sized cubes or wedges and arrange on a serving plate.

Add the warm grilled Halloumi among the pieces of watermelon and scatter fresh mint leaves over the top.

Finish with a light drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, a few drops of fresh lemon juice and freshly ground black pepper.

Serve immediately to enjoy the contrast between warm Halloumi and cool watermelon.
