Pan-fried halloumi salad with orange dressing.

Grapes and Halloumi Salad - It's a really good salad to eat at lunch or for a starter.

Grapes and Halloumi Salad. It’s a really good salad to eat at lunch or for a starter.

The book “Around the world in salads” was in my book list for a long time, it has more than 120 salads and dressings to cook for all over the year. This autumn I needed some new inspiration in food photography especially with salads so I decided to buy it. When I opened it, I couldn’t stop reading eat: I wanted to cook every thing inside! It was hard to make my choice. Originally the recipe is made with roasted fennels but it’s not in season in December so I decided to make without it and I love it! I’ve never done any dressing with Orange juice and I like it: it’s less acid than vinegar and really flavourful!
