Cooking Tips

• Make sure to choose a ripe and sweet watermelon for the best flavor.
• If you prefer a milder onion flavor, you can soak the sliced red onion in cold water for 10 minutes before adding it to the salad.
• For extra flavor, you can grill the halloumi slices instead of pan-frying them.

Storage and Serving

• This salad is best served immediately to enjoy the crispness of the watermelon and the texture of the halloumi.
• If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
• Before serving leftovers, give the salad a quick toss to redistribute the dressing.
