Method

  1. Toss the tomato halves and halloumi slices in a bowl with 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil and season with black pepper. Place onto a hot barbecue and cook for 3-4 mins then turn carefully with a fish slice and cook for a further 2 mins until lightly charred and soft.

  2. Remove the tomato halves and halloumi from the barbecue and place onto a chopping board. Lightly brush the sourdough with 1-2 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil on both sides and season well. Lightly grill the sourdough slices on the barbecue for 1 min on each side until marked and lightly charred in places.

  3. Cut the tomato and halloumi into chunky pieces and place in a bowl with the garlic, basil and remaining olive oil and gently toss, taking care not to break up the tomato too much.

  4. Serve the topping piled onto the warm toasts.
