  1. 1

    Put your cognac, port and honey into a small saucepan. Mix the honey with the alcohol stirring it until they have infused over heat.

  2. 2

    Add 200 grams of the berries and gently simmer until they pop and release their juice.

  3. 3

    Take the mixture of the heat and cool slightly. With a blender mix until smooth

  4. 4

    With a fine sieve separate the seeds from the juice. I use the handle of a wooden spoon to stir the juice gently through the sieve. It will be thicker then just normal juice and smooth.Discard the seeds , return juice back to the pot

  5. 5

    Reheat gently .Mix the cornflour with the water, add to the juice until it slightly thickens to a sauce . Take of heat . Add the rest of the berries and leave to cool.

  6. 6

    This mixture can be used for savouries and puddings alike. It keeps 2-3 days in fridge .

  7. 7

    Heat frying pan and fry the halloumi from both sides to brown, it should not be rubbery when cooked.

  8. 8

    Arrange cheese as served here Iwith lettuce , prawns and the sauce. I had this as a light lunch but it could equally serve as a starter.
