|description=A very refreshing and unusual salad recipe - definitely worth trying this out
}}

This recipe is another variation of the various halloumi salads we have, ''see end of recipe for details''.

We had bought the ingredients to make [[Halloumi, fennel and pink grapefruit salad]] when I spotted a couple of windfall cooking apples on the windowsill. We'll have to save the grapefruit for another recipe.
If you are unsure about using fennel bulbs, this is a great recipe to try it out on. Sliced thinly, they are like sliced [[onions]], they have the crunch of a [[lettuce]] with the faintest hint of [[aniseed]]. Keeping them ice cold makes them especially crunchy.

This is another great recipe for your [[Ghent night]] and would also make an ideal [[starter]] for 4 or 6 people.
