Ingredients

Dressing

Steps

  1. Cover the bulgur with the boiling water and a pinch of salt; rest 15 minutes, then fluff.

  2. Sear the halloumi in 1 tbsp oil over medium-high heat, 2 minutes per side, until browned.

  3. Toss the bulgur with the cucumber, tomatoes, herbs, and dressing.

  4. Top with the halloumi and eat while the cheese is still hot.

Halloumi turns squeaky and tough as it cools — serve straight from the pan.

Swaps

  • Quinoa works in place of bulgur for a gluten-free bowl.
