• 2.5 ml freshly ground black pepper

• 170 g cherry tomatoes

• 225 g halloumi cheese, sliced into 1.25 cm planks

How to make Grilled greens and cheese on toast

1. Prepare a grill for medium-high heat and oil the grate.

2. Toss the kale with 30 ml of oil, ½ tsp of salt, and ½ tsp of pepper in a large bowl; set aside.

3. Thread the tomatoes onto skewers, then drizzle with oil and season lightly with salt.

4. Grill the tomato skewers, Halloumi, and lemon halves, turning them halfway through, until charred and softened, about 6–8 minutes. Transfer to a platter.

5. Meanwhile, drizzle the bread with oil and season lightly with salt. Grill until golden brown and crisp, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to the platter and rub one side of each slice with the halved garlic clove.

6. Grill the kale, placing it crosswise across the grate to prevent it from falling through, and turn occasionally until charred in places and softened throughout, about 2–3 minutes. Transfer to the platter alongside the Halloumi, tomatoes, and bread.

7. Push the tomatoes off the skewers and squeeze the charred lemon halves over the Halloumi, tomatoes, kale, and bread. Drizzle with oil before serving.
