Bacon-Wrapped Halloumi Recipe with Pea Salad

200g frozen peas
½ tsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp olive oil
4 spring onions
chopped
6 slices thin-cut streaky bacon
1 block halloumi
cut into 6 short slices
50g pea shoots

Method

step 1
Put the peas in a colander and pour over a kettle of boiling water. Drain well.
step 2
Put the mustard and vinegar in a bowl and whisk, then whisk in the oil and season. Add the peas and spring onions and toss.
step 3
Put the bacon slices on a chopping board and scrape along them with the back of a knife to stretch them out so they’re thinner. Wrap each halloumi slice in a strip of bacon.
step 4
Heat a non-stick frying pan and fry the wrapped halloumi until really golden and crisp.
step 5
Toss the pea shoots into the peas and serve with the halloumi.
