Instructions

1. Make the muhammara. Blitz roasted red peppers, walnuts, garlic, pomegranate molasses, lemon juice, cumin, chili flakes and olive oil until smooth but slightly textured.
2. Grill the halloumi. Slice halloumi and cook in a hot grill pan for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.
3. Warm the flatbreads. Heat flatbreads in a dry pan or oven until soft and lightly charred.
4. Assemble. Spread a generous layer of muhammara on each flatbread and top with grilled halloumi.
5. Finish and serve. Scatter with fresh parsley, pomegranate seeds, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of chili flakes. Serve warm.

Tips & Variations

• Blitz the muhammara just until slightly textured, so it keeps some bite.
• Grill the halloumi in a dry, very hot pan so it turns golden without sticking.
• Warm the flatbreads just before serving so they stay soft and lightly charred.
