Chef's Tips
For an extra kick, add a finely diced jalapeño to the peach salsa.
You can swap nectarines for other fruits such as mango or peach for a similar fruity sweetness.
Warm your tortillas in a dry pan for a few seconds on each side to make them more pliable and prevent tearing.
Prepare the Salsa Components
Dice the nectarines and cherry tomatoes. Finely chop the red onion and the fresh coriander.
Make the Nectarine Salsa
In a mixing bowl, combine the diced nectarines, cherry tomatoes, chopped red onion, and chopped coriander. Squeeze in the juice from half a lime and mix all the ingredients thoroughly.
Prepare the Halloumi Coating
Slice the halloumi into pieces approximately 1cm thick. Place the slices in a separate bowl, drizzle over the honey and balsamic glaze, and sprinkle with the chilli flakes. Toss gently to ensure the halloumi is evenly coated.
Cook the Halloumi
Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add the coated halloumi slices and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown and slightly crisp.
Warm the Tortillas
Warm the tortillas according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer; this can be done in a dry frying pan, microwave, or oven.
Assemble the Taco Base
Lay out the warmed tortillas. Divide the rocket leaves evenly among them, placing them down first as the base layer.
Add the Main Toppings
Place the cooked, golden halloumi slices on top of the rocket leaves. Spoon a generous amount of the prepared nectarine salsa over the halloumi.
Serve the Tacos
Fold the filled tortillas and serve immediately for the best flavour and texture.
