2 tablespoons lemon juice

400g cherry truss tomatoes, quartered, sliced

40g mixed salad leaves (mesclun)

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan. Line two oven trays with baking paper.

2 Cut each baguette thinly on an angle into 12 slices; spray both sides with oil.

3 Place bread on oven trays; bake for 10 minutes or until golden.

4 Cut haloumi thinly into 24 slices; place between two sheets of paper towel to drain for 5 minutes.

5 Meanwhile, combine avocado and juice in a medium bowl. Season to taste.

6 Pan-fry haloumi, in batches, in a large oiled frying pan over medium-high heat for 1 minute each side or until golden brown (see notes).

7 Top toasted bread with a haloumi slice, avocado mixture, tomatoes and a few salad leaves. Drizzle with oil to serve.

Test Kitchen Notes Haloumi is best cooked just before serving.
