How to Chop Herbs

Method

  • Preheat oven to 200°C. Trim the asparagus, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil then group into bunches of 3 and wrap a piece of bacon around each bunch. Season with salt and pepper, put onto a baking tray and roast for 20 - 25 minutes or until tender.

  • Mix together the balsamic vinegar and remaining extra virgin olive oil for the dressing and set aside.

  • Put some flour in a bowl, add the haloumi, and toss through flour, then shake off the excess flour.

  • Heat a non stick fry pan, add the oil, and when hot add the haloumi. Cook until golden on each side.

  • Dress the rocket with the balsamic dressing, divide between four plates, place two asparagus bundles on top then place 3 pieces of haloumi on each plate.

  • Serve immediately.
