Ingredients

• 2 x 160g haloumi, sliced into 1.5cm pieces
• ½ cup freekeh, rinsed
• 1 pomegranate, seeds removed
• ½ cup toasted almonds, roughly chopped
• 4 sprigs each of mint, dill and parsley, finely chopped
• 2 spring onions, sliced
• 1 cup of water
• Olive oil, for frying

Dressing

• 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tsp pomegranate molasses
• 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
• 1 tsp honey
• Salt and pepper

Method

1. For the dressing, whisk all the ingredients together with a pinch of salt and pepper.
2. Heat a small splash of olive oil in a pan over medium heat, then fry the haloumi for 2-3 minutes on each side.
3. Place the freekeh and 1 cup of water into a small saucepan. Once boiling, turn down to a simmer and cook for 15–20 minutes, until tender but chewy. Drain and place into a bowl with the pomegranate seeds, almonds, herbs and spring onions. Drizzle in half of the dressing and toss.
4. Arrange on a platter, top with grain salad, and drizzle with extra dressing.
