ingredients
- 24 white button mushrooms
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons pine nuts
- 200 g halloumi cheese, typical sized block
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- freshly ground salt
- fresh ground pepper
- salad greens, washed, dried and torn into pieces
directions
- Heat oven to 180°C.
- Wipe the caps of the mushrooms clean with a damp towel, brush with oil and season lightly. Cook in the oven, cap side up for 10 minutes then turn over and cook for another 5 minutes. Cut into 1/2 cm slices.
- Heat a frypan and cook the pinenuts tossing, until they just begin to colour. Take care because they burn easily. Put aside.
- Heat 1 tbsp of oil in the pan, slice the Haloumi and cook for a minute or so on each side, or until it turns a patchy golden brown.
- Shake the lemon juice and seasonings in a screw top jar then toss the dressing with the salad greens, keeping a little but back.
- To serve, arrange salad greens on plates and top with mushrooms and cheese slices. Drizzle with the reserved dressing and scatter with the pinenuts.
