Grilled split pitas with hummus, halloumi and avocado

By Phillippa Cheifitz

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cooking Time 5 minutes

Ingredients

4 wholewheat pita breads
250 g hummus
4 Israeli tomatoes, thinly sliced
About 200g halloumi cheese
Dried oregano and olive oil for sprinkling

Topping:

1 cup shredded crisp lettuce
1 avocado, peeled and chopped
2 spring onions, peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons shredded basil
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 crushed clove garlic
Sea salt and milled black pepper

Method

Split the pita breads across. Spread with hummus, add a layer of sliced tomato.
Top with shavings of halloumi and sprinkle with oregano and olive oil.
Add a grinding of pepper and slide under a hot grill until the cheese melts and the edges brown.
Mix together the topping ingredients and spoon over sandwiches and serve immediately.

TASTE’s take:
A substantial sandwich that’s good for a casual lunch. It’s just as delicious with crumbled feta in place of halloumi.
