Ingredients

  • 2 pita bread
  • 200 g halloumi cheese
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  • 100 g salad leaves, of your choice
  • 1/2 small cucumber, sliced
  • 2 tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 red pepper, sliced into rings (if small enough)
  • 1 red onion, sliced into rings

  • 2 mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano and pepper.
  • 3 leave the halloumi in the mixture for half an hour.
  • 4 place the halloumi on a red hot griddle pan and cook until nicely coloured, turn it over and repeat (depending on heat of pan will only take a few minutes each side so don't leave it).
  • 5 warm the pitta breads under the grill (in the oven, in a toaster) following manufacturers instructions.
  • 6 slice the top edge of the pitta off (much easier than trying to slice down into it)
  • 7 put in a little salad, some slices of cucumber, tomato and red peppers.
  • 8 add the cheese and some more salad building up until its nice and full.
  • 9 serve with the dressing on one side or you could add it as you are building it up.
