The halloumi slices are seared in olive oil until golden, then laid while still hot over cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion and pomegranate. The hot honey goes onto the hot cheese, with the coriander and lime at the end.

Sear the halloumi slices in the olive oil until well browned and crisp on both sides.
In a salad bowl, mix the tomatoes, cucumber, onion and pomegranate.
Lay the hot halloumi on top and drizzle it with hot honey while it is still hot.
Finish with the coriander, a last drizzle of hot honey and a squeeze of lime.
