Ingredients

150 g halloumi sliced into 6 slices about ⅔ cm thick
3 carrots grated

1 lemon juiced
3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

pinch salt
pinch black pepper

Metric - US Customary

Instructions

Prepare all the vegetables and put them in a bowl.
In another bowl, mix together the lemon juice, olive oil, sumac, black pepper, salt and pomegranate molasses. Pour half of it over the vegetables and toss together.
Slice the halloumi and put it in a dry frying pan. Cook for about 3 minutes on each side. Alternatively grill for about 3 minutes on each side. I prefer to grill it as it can stick to the fryin pan.
Divide the salad between 2 plates. Put the cheese on top and drizzle over the rest of the dressing.
