Ingredients

1 block (225g) halloumi
4 rashers streaky bacon
Runny honey to drizzle
1 tbsp dried oregano

Method

Heat the oven to 170°C fan/gas 5. Cut the block of halloumi in half through its middle, creating 2 thinner sheets. Cut each sheet into 4 batons.
Cut each rasher of bacon in half, then run the back of your knife along each piece to stretch them out a bit. Roll each halloumi baton up in the bacon, using a cocktail stick to secure it in place. Put on a baking tray.
Roast the halloumi in the oven for 15 minutes, or until the bacon is crisp and the cheese has softened. Drizzle with honey then sprinkle with dried oregano.
