Rose, Sumac & Halloumi Freekeh Garden Bowls with Citrus Herb Dressing

‘This looked stunning and tasted even better!’

Some recipes simply belong outdoors. This vibrant freekeh bowl celebrates everything we love about British summer lunches – warm sunshine, fresh herbs, colourful salads and leisurely conversations around the table. Sweet grilled peaches pair beautifully with salty halloumi, while toasted Greenfields Freekeh adds a wonderfully nutty bite. Finished with fragrant sumac, dukkah and a bright lemon dressing, it’s a recipe that feels elegant enough for guests yet effortless enough for a relaxed weekend picnic.

Serves 4

Preparation: 20 minutes

Cooking: 15 minutes

Total Time: 35 minutes

For the salad

  • 200g Greenfields Lightly Toasted Cracked Freekeh
  • 225g halloumi, sliced
  • 2 ripe peaches, halved
  • 150g cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 small cucumber, diced
  • ½ small red onion, finely sliced
  • Large handful fresh parsley
  • Large handful fresh mint
  • 40g rocket leaves
  • 2 tbsp pomegranate seeds

Citrus Herb Dressing

  • 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 tsp Greenfields Sumac (Somaq)
  • ½ tsp Greenfields Aleppo Chilli
  • 1 tsp Greenfields Dried Mint

To Finish

  1. Cook the freekeh according to the packet instructions, then drain and allow to cool until just warm.
  2. Whisk together all of the dressing ingredients until emulsified.
  3. Brush the peaches and halloumi lightly with olive oil.
  4. Grill the peaches for 2–3 minutes each side until lightly caramelised.
  5. Grill the halloumi until golden with attractive char marks.
  6. In a large serving bowl combine the freekeh, tomatoes, cucumber, onion, parsley, mint and rocket.
  7. Pour over most of the dressing and toss gently.
  8. Arrange the grilled peaches and halloumi over the top.
  9. Scatter with pomegranate seeds, Dukkah, extra Sumac and fresh mint.
  10. Serve with lemon wedges and the remaining dressing.
* Freekeh has a delicious nutty flavour that becomes even better served warm rather than cold. * Grilling the peaches intensifies their natural sweetness and perfectly balances the salty halloumi. * Add grilled chicken or chickpeas for extra protein. * Everything can be prepared ahead, making it ideal for entertaining outdoors. * A chilled glass of hibiscus tea or sparkling lemonade complements the floral citrus flavours beautifully.
