    Bit of a mixture this eve:
    Jame Oliver sexy salad (figs, mozarella, basil and proscuitto)
    Pasta with vegetable pesto
    Asparagus

    Nice and summery (despite how cold it is today) but looking forward to it :D

    Gnocchi in arrabiata and salami sauce with salad, coleslaw and garlic bread. My four year old and other half bolted it down so it must've passed the test :D

    Back to college tonight, so have had my usual tea and toast (although this time with my nice wild garlic bread) when I got in.

    I love halloumi, but don't have it at home much. How do you usually cook it - grilled or fried?

    I don't mean to jump in in an ignorant way but have you tried Delia's Halloumi with caper sauce? Stunning!
    I've tried grilling it - it's ok, but lightly dusted in cornflour and fried in hot rapeseed/sunflower oil etc for a short time is best - too long with either methods dries the cheese out.
    The Delia recipe is in her summer book btw. :)

    I could eat some now! There's some in the fridge but calories!:(

    Lately I've been marinading it in chilli, garlic, honey and lemon and putting it in a container and cooking it in the Philips Airfryer. Before that I just did the same in the oven and a little oil, but we've griddled it, too.

    Great thanks Kim, I'll get myself some, very rarely use out griddle, so I'll put that to use.

    Oh! I've never marinaded it!:) good thinking! I can't digeste too much fat so are the air fryers good? I don't deep fat/fry any food?
    ( if I don't reply immediately I'm not ignoring you - I have to do some jobs & will be back later btw).:)
