if you're using the spelt that is not pre-cooked make sure you take the soaking and boiling time into account with this salad. The spelt has to soak for 12 hrs and then boil for an hour to be edible. I used precooked spelt which only takes 10 minutes to finish

Ingredients
100grspelt
5radishes
25grdried cranberries
2spring onions
75grhalloumi cheese
1-2sprigs flat leaf parsley
For the dressing;
1-2tbspof mustard mayonaiseI made this myself, see note
juice of half a lemon
salt
pepper
Instructions
Start by boiling your spelt. Drain and let cool down.
Cut the halloumi into cubes and fry them in hot sunflower oil until golden brown. This goes very quickly so stay with it for best results. Leave to drain on kitchen paper. Cut your spring onion in slices, cut the radishes in slices and chop your cranberries a little smaller. Chop your parsley.
Mix the cooled down spelt with the cranberries, the radishes, the springonion and the parsley.
Making the dressing:
For the mustard mayonaise I used regular mayonaise ingredients but added a bit more mustard in it. I then mixed two tablespoons of that mayonaise with lemon juice and added pepper and salt to taste.
Notes
To make the mustard mayonaise I made a regular mayonaise but used more mustard than I would normally do. I added a bit of lemon and salt and pepper too.
