from Cyprus, fruity marinated and totally delicious

Mix half of the olive oil and the lime juice, add the garlic and season the marinade with salt, pepper and honey. Wash and halve the tomatoes. Sort the arugula, wash it and let it drain. Trim the stalks or remove them completely. Cut the halloumi into slices about 1 cm thick and fry in the remaining olive oil in a pan for about a minute on each side until golden brown, then remove from the pan and add the tomato halves. Fry for about 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the tomatoes begin to melt. Arrange a nest of arugula on two plates, drape the halloumi on top and add the tomato halves. Drizzle everything with the marinade and serve immediately. We serve this with crispy flatbread and a fruity red wine.
