Cooking Steps

Pickle the fennel
1
  • Thinly slice fennel.
  • In a small heatproof bowl, combine the white wine vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt.

Get prepped
2
  • While fennel is pickling, roughly shred baby cos lettuce.
  • Thinly slice cucumber into rounds. Slice lemon into wedges. Finely chop garlic.
  • In a second small bowl, combine dill & parsley mayonnaise and Greek-style yoghurt.
Make the croutons
3
  • Cut or tear bake-at-home ciabatta into bite-sized chunks.
  • In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Cook ciabatta until golden and slightly crispy, 5-6 minutes.
  • Add garlic and another drizzle of olive oil, tossing until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Season to taste.
Cook the haloumi
4
  •  Return frying pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • When oil is hot, cook beef strips, tossing, in batches until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate. 
  • Drain haloumi and pat dry. Cut the haloumi into 1cm-thick slices.
  • Return pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
  • Cook haloumi until golden brown, 1-2 minutes each side.
  • Remove pan from heat and add the honey and a squeeze of lemon juice.
  • TIP: Cooking the meat in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.
