Take off heat and set aside then cut the skin off the melon and dispose. Cut the melon wedges into the same size as the watermelon chunks and add to the salad and mix through.
Heat a frypan over a medium heat add a drizzle of olive oil and the haloumi cheese. Fry till golden on all sides, add the honey and glaze then add the lemon juice. Toss together until the glaze coats the halloumi.
