The saltiness of the halloumi in this recipe pairs wonderfully with the sweetness of the watermelon. This is our kind of salad. Made using ingredients we got in a flash from Deliveroo.

Step 1.
Halve, then quarter the watermelon and cut away the green rind. Slice into random triangular pieces. Pile the watermelon high on a big salad platter, or divide between four plates.
Step 2.
Pick the mint leaves and zest the lemon. Squeeze the lemon juice into a bowl, then stir in the honey, sesame seeds, chilli flakes if using, a good pinch of salt and black pepper and 3 tbsp water to make the halloumi dressing.
Step 3.
Drain and cut the halloumi into thick slices. Get your largest frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the halloumi and fry for around 2 mins on each side until crisp and golden.
Step 4.
Turn down the heat to the lowest setting, pour in the sesame honey dressing and cook for 1 min more, using a spoon to baste the halloumi in the dressing.
Step 5.
Top the watermelon with the halloumi and dressing, then scatter over the mint leaves and lemon zest to serve. Unreal.
