Method

  1. Slice the halloumi into 16 x 5mm slices. Heat the oil in a nonstick frying pan over a high heat, then fry the halloumi for 2-3 mins each side until golden and charred.
  2. Meanwhile, make the dressing. Mix the garlic, most of the chillies, sugar, fish sauce and lime juice in a mixing bowl. Set aside 2 tbsp of the dressing in a separate bowl, then add the coriander, tomatoes and most of the mint to the mixing bowl and toss to coat.
  3. To serve, arrange the tomato mixture on a platter, then top with the halloumi. Drizzle over the remaining dressing and sprinkle with the remaining chillies, mint and peanuts to finish.
