Halloumi And Pear Salad

• 1 bunch oak leaf lettuce (or any other green you prefer)
• 2 bunches arugula
• 8 -10 cherry tomatoes, halved
• 2 -4 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 -2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
• salt (optional)
• black pepper (freshly ground) (optional)
• 1 -2 ripe pear
• 1 -2 teaspoon butter
• 250 g halloumi cheese

1. Shred rinsed lettuce and arugula and arrange on a plate (this salad looks prettier on a flat surface, so for presentation, use a plate rather than a bowl).
2. Halve cherry tomatoes, arrange on top of salad.
3. Mix olive oil and balsamic vinegar, drizzle on top of the salad. Season with salt and pepper, if you prefer.
4. Peel pear(s) and cut into small cubes. Heat butter in a pan and cook pear cubes until warm and soft. Let cool a little and pour on top of the salad.
5. Slice halloumi cheese (soak in cold water first for 5-20 minutes if you want to reduce the saltiness). Heat butter in a pan and fry the slices until browned on both sides; arrange on top of the salad.
6. Serve immediately while the cheese is still warm.
