Method

  1. Put the cucumber in a large bowl with a pinch of salt; toss well, then set aside.
  2. Meanwhile, boil the eggs for 6 mins in a pan of simmering water. Drain and submerge in cold water, then peel once cool enough to handle.
  3. Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and fry the halloumi for 2 mins, stirring occasionally. Add the almonds and cook for 2 mins more until everything is golden. Add the honey and toss to coat for 1 min; remove from the heat and stir through the pomegranate seeds, if using.
  4. Halve the peeled eggs and divide among plates. Drain the cucumber, toss with the vinegar and add to the plates. Add the halloumi mixture, avocado and lettuce and finish with a little pile of mixed seeds and a scattering of dill. Serve with wholegrain toast, if you like.
