The Jamie Oliver 5 Ingredients Halloumi Salad is a deliciously quick, vibrant dish that balances salty halloumi, sweet peaches, crisp frisée, and spicy rose harissa. I made this for a summer lunch and it felt like sunshine on a plate. The textures and flavors are just perfect. (inspired by Jamie Oliver)

Ingredients Needed

  • 2 ripe peaches
  • 225g halloumi cheese
  • 1 head of frisée
  • 10g dill (about half a bunch)
  • 1 tablespoon rose harissa

How To Make Jamie Oliver 5 Ingredients Halloumi Salad

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Cut the peaches and halloumi into roughly 2cm chunks for even cooking.
  2. Cook the Halloumi and Peaches: Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan over high heat. Fry the peach and halloumi chunks for 4 minutes, turning occasionally, until the halloumi is golden.
  3. Prep the Greens: Pick the pale leaves from the frisée, discarding the darker ones. Pluck the dill leaves and keep whole.
  4. Add Harissa and Mix: Stir 1 tablespoon of rose harissa and 1 tablespoon of red wine vinegar into the pan with the peaches and halloumi. Remove from heat and gently toss in the frisée and dill.
  5. Serve: Season to taste. For extra balance, drizzle with honey if your peaches are on the tart side. Serve immediately.

Why I Love This Recipe

It’s a total flavor bomb. The salty halloumi and sweet peaches work magic together, and the harissa gives it a little kick. It’s super quick, and every bite is bright, juicy, and satisfying.

Recipe Tips

  • Use ripe peaches for best sweetness.
  • Cut halloumi evenly for consistent browning.
  • Cook on high heat to get that caramelized edge.
  • Use light frisée leaves to keep the salad delicate.
  • Balance spice with honey if needed.

How To Store This Jamie Oliver 5 Ingredients Halloumi Salad

  • In the Fridge: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Keep the halloumi separate if possible.
  • Reheating: Reheat the halloumi gently in a dry pan. Avoid microwaving to keep it from going rubbery.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Can I use another cheese instead of halloumi? Yes, paneer or grilled feta can work too.
  • What if I don’t have frisée? Try rocket, baby spinach, or watercress.
  • Can I make this salad vegan? Use a plant-based halloumi alternative and maple syrup instead of honey.
  • Is it good for meal prep? Best fresh, but you can prep the components and combine just before eating.
