Dressing
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 garlic clove, minced very fine

- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh spearmint
- 2 teaspoons sweet chili sauce
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar

directions
- Mix all salad dressing ingredients together and stir well.
- Brush eggplant slices with olive oil and place under a hot grill; cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until lightly browned and cooked through; alternatively, grill on BBQ.
- Coat haloumi cheese in flour and fry in a little olive oil in a not-stick frying pan on high heat until lightly brown on both sides; alternatively, grill on BBQ (do not coat with flour if grilling on the bbq).

Loved this, especially the sauce. Used 1/2 small red onion.
-
Nice recipe although DH didn't like the dressing. Thanks!

The pairing was perfect with the grilled taste and salty cheese. I used the dressing from Recipe #54032 for personal taste reasons but also made the recipes dressing, both worked great!

This got great reviews in our home! DH and I both felt the dressing complemented the halloumi perfectly and I loved the recipe because it used ingredients I already love and had. Very simple to put together. Even my toddler ate some and she is going through a fussy phase at the moment!
