Ingredients
  • For the green salsa
  • 1 green pepper, deseeded and sliced into four
  • 2 large green tomatoes
  • 2 echalion shallots, peeled and roughly chopped
  • 1⁄2 bunch of coriander
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Juice of
  • 2 limes
Salt and pepper, to taste
  • For the tacos
  • 225g halloumi, sliced thickly
  • 4 echalion shallots, peeled and sliced in half
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 8 small tortillas
  • For the guacamole
  • 2 ripe avocados
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
Method

To make the salsa, add all of the ingredients (reserving some of the chopped echalion to garnish) to a food processor and pulse to a chunky salsa.

Toss the halloumi slices and shallots with the olive oil, cumin, paprika and seasoning. Heat a griddle pan on a medium high heat and cook the halloumi and shallots until charred and cooked through.

While they are cooking, make the guacamole. Slice and de-stone the avocados. Add to a bowl with the rest of the ingredients and roughly mash with a fork. Warm the tortillas through in a dry frying pan.

To assemble the tacos, spread each tortilla with a tablespoon of guacamole. Add a few halloumi slices and an echalion half. Top with a generous spoon of the green salsa, and some finely chopped echalion.
