This warm radish, halloumi, potato and cherry tomato salad is a lovely mix of unexpected flavours that work beautifully together.
The spicy hit of the radishes, warm potatoes, salty halloumi and sweet cherry tomatoes are a brilliant combination, all held together with a simple red wine vinegar dressing. If you don't have red wine vinegar, you can use balsamic instead - it's a little sweeter, but just as delicious. This recipe serves four, and it's ready in just half an hour.
