Grilled Haloumi Cheese and Lemon

Ingredients for Grilled Haloumi Cheese and Lemon

• 2 lemons

• 230g Haloumi cheese

• 1 large garlic clove

• 1/4 teaspoons salt

• 1/4 cucchiaino di zucchero

• 60ml plus 2 tablespoons olive oil

• 4 (3/4-inch-thick) slices peasant or country-style bread

• 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill

Prepare a gas grill for direct-heat cooking over moderately high heat.

Cut 8 thin slices from lemons, then squeeze enough juice from remainder to measure 2 tablespoons and put in a bowl.

Halve cheese diagonally, then cut each triangle, cut side down, into 1/3-inch-thick slices.

Mince garlic and mash to a paste with a pinch of salt using side of a large heavy knife, then add to lemon juice. Whisk in salt and sugar until dissolved, then add 60ml oil, whisking until combined.

Separately toss lemon slices and cheese each with 1/2 tablespoons dressing.

Brush both sides of bread with remaining 2 tablespoons oil.

Grill bread, cheese, and lemon slices on grill rack, covered, turning over once (use a metal spatula to scrape under cheese to loosen before turning), until bread is toasted (2 to 3 minutes total), grill marks appear on cheese (3 to 4 minutes total), and lemons begin to wilt (4 to 6 minutes total).

Whisk dill into remaining dressing. Divide bread among 4 small plates and top with cheese and lemon slices. Drizzle with dressing and serve immediately.
