Ingredients
For the salad:
- 4 zucchini sliced lengthways
- 200 grams halloumi cheese sliced into 8 long strips
- 120 grams baby spinach leaves
For the mint oil:
- 1 cup mint leaves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat your bbq grill to a medium-high setting. Toss the sliced zucchini in a few tablespoon of olive oil and cook for 3-5 mins until done and then set aside in a bowl. (Make sure they are not too soft. Also, the cooking time will vary depending on their thickness).
- Cook the halloumi for 2-3 mins each side. Slice and add to bowl with zucchini.
- To make the mint oil, add the mint leaves and salt to the mortar and proceed to grind with the pestle until you have a paste. Add the oil and combine again.
- Add the spinach leaves along with the zucchini and halloumi and toss through one or two tablespoon of the mint oil.
- Serve with toasted pita bread or tortillas.
