• In a medium bowl, place haloumi and cover with water to soak. Grate carrot (see ingredients). Finely chop garlic. Halve cherry tomatoes. Roughly chop baby spinach leaves and cucumber. Pick and roughly chop mint leaves. Melt butter with a drizzle of olive oil in a medium saucepan over a medium high heat. Cook carrot and cook, stirring, until softened, 2-3 minutes.

• Drain haloumi and pat dry.
