Instructions
- Brush the asparagus, courgettes, peppers and Halloumi with the oil. Heat a large griddle pan or frying pan on a high heat and, in batches, fry the vegetables for 2 minutes on each side until softened and lightly charred. Carefully wipe out the pan with kitchen paper and then griddle the Halloumi for 2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Do not be tempted to move the food as it is cooking to make sure you get perfect griddle marks.
- Combine the dressing ingredients in a serving jug and mix well. Serve the salad piled on plates with the orange caper dressing drizzled over.
