Using Up The Rest of The Haloumi….

Well after my egg & haloumi easy supper, I still had half a packet of haloumi needing to be used up……no problem….I marinated it in cubes just like before, sauted it along with a salmon fillet, which I then cut into pieces (well it just flaked apart really). I then mixed both of these with some blanched green beans, a few slices of red onion, a large pinch of dried dill (couldn’t get any fresh today), cracked pepper and a splash of lemon juice and soy sauce.

Not bad for a delicious, healthy main meal salad, and ideal for the hot weather.

Happy Fooding!

Another Dinner For One….

Snacky Sunday night can’t-be-bothered meal here……I read recently an idea for adding feta cheese to egg dishes and thought hmmmmm I’ll try adding haloumi to some scrambled eggs. Great idea – I cut 90 gms of haloumi into small cubes and marinated them for an hour in a bit of lemon juice, with a generous sprinkling of dried thyme and merken (use chilli powder if you can’t get merken).  Then I simply dry-fried the cubes in a non-stick omelette pan, for about a minute (tossing about), added 3 eggs (beaten with a little milk, cracked pepper and some fresh garlic chives) and stirred until it was 3/4 cooked. Took off the heat, stirred through a few drops of truffle oil, served it on toast and YUMMO there was my easy supper.

Actually, it was very filling, so probably 3 eggs was too much for one person, but I don’t eat eggs very often so it was a nice treat. 2 eggs and a little less haloumi would be good next time. I couldn’t waste it though!

Enjoyed it with a glass of vino, of course…..

I know it looks a bit “grey” but thats because the herbs and spices kind of get into the egg mixture. It certainly wouldn’t win any prizes for looks, but then I only made it to please ME so who cares.

Happy Fooding!
