Method
Heat a sandwich press. Place the ciabatta cut-side up, scatter with cheese and close the lid without pressing down — you want the heat to melt the cheese, not squash the bread. Toast until the base is crisp and the cheese is melted. Set aside.
Meanwhile, brush the steaks with olive oil and season with salt. Cook on a hot grill pan or barbecue for 1–2 minutes per side, until just cooked. Rest briefly.
In the same pan, grill the halloumi slices until golden on both sides.
Assemble: • Place the steak on the cheesy side of the bread • Add one slice of halloumi per sandwich • Spoon salsa verde over the top half of the ciabatta • Add the rocket and season lightly with salt
Close the sandwiches, press gently with your hands, slice and serve immediately.
