I love the salty/sweet mix of cheese & fruit. Feta & tomato salad, feta & watermelon and this halloumi and mango salsa being my absolute favourites. It’s just the perfect blend of salt, sweetness and acidity for a warm summers day.
This grilled halloumi & mango salsa recipe takes minutes to prepare and tastes so much more than the sum of its parts. It also just looks amazing, full of colour. Literally summer in a bowl!
I tend to serve this as part of a pic n mix summer picnic lunch or just by itself with some fresh bread.
I am not a fan of coriander, at all, so I miss it out. Sometimes I make two versions at the same time, with and without coriander!
The halloumi can be fried in a Trangia camping stove or over a campfire in a griddle pan or Dutch Oven lid.
