Halloumi, Tuna and Broccoli
Halloumi, Tuna and Broccoli
This recipe is also an easy one and quick. Perfect for a light but still fulfilling lunch. I am using aged Halloumi again as it is my personal favorite. And despite other people’s preferences I strongly believe that aged halloumi goes with everything, whereas fresh halloumi, at least in my plate, does not get along with tuna.
Ingredients:
- Aged Lysiotiko Halloumi
- Chunk Tuna
- Broccoli
- Tomato
- Lemon
Preparation:
Steam the broccoli. Drain your chunk tuna. Slice the halloumi. Slice the tomato. Lay them on the plate. Sprinkle the tuna with some lemon. Sprinkle the tomato and broccoli with salt. And then just get fulfilled but still feel light.
