Calories 350 kcal
- 5 oz 150 g halloumi cheese
- 6 slices ciabatta bread or any similar crusty bread
- 1 ripe avocado
- 3 tablespoons pomegranate molasses
Grill the Halloumi: Preheat a grill pan or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Slice the halloumi cheese into thick pieces (about 1/4 inch thick) and grill for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and slightly crispy. Set aside.
Toast the Bread: Lightly toast the ciabatta bread slices either in a toaster or on a hot grill until they are golden and crisp on the edges.
Prepare the Avocado: Slice the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth, or slice it thinly if you prefer more texture.
Assemble the Tartine: Spread a generous layer of mashed avocado on each slice of toasted ciabatta bread. Top with grilled halloumi slices.
Drizzle with Pomegranate Molasses: Drizzle 1/2 tablespoon of pomegranate molasses over each tartine, adding a sweet and tangy finish that complements the savory halloumi and creamy avocado.
Serve: Serve the tartines immediately, garnishing with extra pomegranate seeds, herbs, or a sprinkle of chili flakes if desired.
