Watermelon Panzanella



INGREDIENTS.

  • 4 thick slices crusty sourdough

  • 100 ml olive oil

  • 8 thick slices haloumi (about 250g)

  • ½ small Spanish onion, thinly sliced

  • 800 g seedless watermelon, pieces cut

  • 200g cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 100 ml extra-virgin olive oil

  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar

  • To serve: basil and mint leaves, sliced

TO DO.


Cut and chill the watermelon before assembling this summer salad for a crisper, tastier result on a hot day.


1. Preheat a char-grill over high heat. Brush bread with oil, grill until charred and golden, turning once (1-2 minutes each side). Set aside.



2. Heat remaining oil in a large non-stick frying pan over high heat. Fry haloumi in batches until golden, turning once (2-3 minutes each side). Set aside.



3. Meanwhile, tear grilled bread into bite-sized pieces, place in a bowl with remaining ingredients, toss gently, season to taste, scatter with basil and mint leaves, serve with haloumi.
