Preparation
1
Cook Farro

Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Add the farro and 3 cups water (dbl for 4 ppl) to a medium pot. Cover, and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Cook, uncovered, until farro is tender, 14-16 min. When farro is done, strain, rinse with cold water and set aside.

2
Prep

While the farro cooks, halve the tomatoes. Roughly chop the parsley. Peel, then mince the shallot. Roughly chop the olives. Roughly chop the spinach. Cut the halloumi into 1/4-inch thick slices, then rinse and pat dry with paper towels.

3
COOK HALLOUMI

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil, then the halloumi slices. Cook, until golden-brown, 1-2 min per side. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook halloumi in 2 batches for 4 ppl, using 1/2 tbsp oil for each batch!) Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.

4
MAKE DRESSING

Whisk together the shallots, fig jam, vinegar, 1 tbsp water and 1 tbsp oil (dbl both for 4 ppl) in a large bowl.

5
ASSEMBLE SALAD

Add the farro, tomatoes, spinach and parsley to the large bowl with the dressing. Toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.

6
FINISH AND SERVE

Divide Greek grain salad between plates and top with golden halloumi. Sprinkle with the chopped olives.
