Slice the halloumi cheese into thin strips, about 1cm thick.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add the halloumi. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
While the halloumi is cooking, wash and slice the cucumber into thin rounds or half-moons, depending on preference.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Combine the sliced cucumber and fried halloumi in a bowl. Drizzle with the dressing and gently toss to coat everything evenly.
Finely chop the fresh mint leaves and sprinkle them over the salad. Serve immediately, enjoying the contrast of salty, crispy cheese against the fresh, cool cucumber.
