Instructions

Roast your Potato Chunks
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Chop the potato into 2cm chunks (no need to peel).

Pop the chunks onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins. Turn halfway through.

Make your Croutons
2

Meanwhile, drain the halloumi, then cut it into 2cm chunks. Place into a small bowl of cold water and leave to soak.

Tear the ciabatta into roughly 2cm chunks.

Pop the ciabatta onto a baking tray in a single layer. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat well.

Bake the croutons on the middle shelf until golden, 8-10 mins, then remove from the oven and set aside.

Courgette Time
3

While everything bakes, trim the courgette, then quarter lengthways. Chop widthways into 1cm chunks.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat. When hot, add the courgette and cook until charred, 6-8 mins total.

Turn only every couple of mins. 

Dress to Impress
4

While the courgette fries, in a large bowl, mix the pesto, cider vinegar, sugar and olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for both amounts). Season with salt and pepper

Cut the tomato into 1cm chunks and toss through the dressing

Once the courgette has finished cooking, season with salt and pepper, then let it cool a little. Once slightly cooled, add to the dressing

Cheese, Please
5

Remove the halloumi from the cold water, then pop onto a plate lined with kitchen paper and pat dry.

Return the (now empty) pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the halloumi and fry, turning frequently, until golden, 6-7 mins.

Once cooked, remove the halloumi from the heat and drizzle over the honey (see pantry for amount). 

Serve Up
6

Toss the roasted potato, croutons and rocket through the dressing.

Share your salad between your serving bowls. 

Top with your honeyed halloumi.
