Ingredients

• 3 peaches
• 3 large plums
• 180g haloumi
• 150g goat’s cheese
• ¼ cup loose basil leaves
• ¼ cup loose mint leaves
• Balsamic glaze or olive oil
• Cracked black pepper

Method

• Carefully slice the cheeks of the stone fruit into 3 slices on each side.
• Heat a grill pan over high heat and lay the fruit slices on the hot pan.
• Cook for a couple of mins each side, without moving, until they get blackened grill marks
• Carefully remove and sit on a plate.
• Slice the haloumi into thirds, and then use a cookie cutter or knife to cut rounds of cheese.
• Grill these rounds on the hot pan until they have grill marks and are caramelised and softened.
• To make the stacks, start with the fruit and then add a layer of cheese, a few leaves of herbs, fruit, cheese, herbs, fruit.
• I used these combinations: peach with goat’s cheese and basil; or plum with haloumi and mint.
• You can finish them off with a drizzle of olive oil, balsamic glaze or cracked pepper.
• Scatter any remaining leaves around the serving plate.
