Preparation

Step 1

1  yellow zucchini – 1  green zucchini – 150 g azuki beans (tinned) – 1 tbsp Kikkoman Sauce for Poke Bowl – 1  organic lime

Slice the zucchini lengthways into slices or strips. Marinate the azuki beans in the Kikkoman Poke Sauce. Cut the lime into eighths.

Step 2

 ½  small aubergine – 1  small shallot – 1  small garlic clove – 2 tbsp olive oil – 2 tbsp light balsamic vinegar – 2 tbsp Kikkoman Ponzu Citrus Seasoned Soy Sauce - Lemon – 2 tbsp linseed oil – Freshly ground pepper

Cut the aubergine and shallot into small cubes and chop the garlic. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil and fry the aubergine, shallot and garlic until golden brown. Deglaze with the vinegar and the Kikkoman Ponzu Lemon. Stir in the linseed oil and season with the pepper.

Step 3

125 g halloumi – 1  small bunch parsley – Chilli flakes, to taste – Lime eighths from step 1

Cut the halloumi into slices roughly 1 cm thick and fry in a non-stick pan in the remaining heated oil for about 4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Wash the parsley, pat dry and pick off the leaves. Place the zucchini slices in bowls, garnish with the beans and drizzle with the lukewarm dressing. Arrange the halloumi, parsley and lime wedges from step 1 on top and serve immediately, as the halloumi tastes best warm. Sprinkle with chilli flakes if desired.

Tip:

Instead of azuki beans, other pulses such as lentils, edamame, chickpeas or other beans also work well in this salad.
