To make the syrup, place all the ingredients in a small pan and simmer for 3–5 minutes. Set aside. To make the lavash, preheat the oven to 220°C. Combine the flours and salt in a mixing bowl. Make a well in the centre and add 2 T olive oil. Stir in the water and mix to form a stiff dough, Divide the dough into small balls and roll out to make long oval shapes about 15 cm long. Place on a lined baking sheet. Lightly brush the surface of the dough with water and sprinkle with the dukkah and salt. Bake for 7–10 minutes, or until lightly golden and crisp. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Heat in the oven just before serving. Fry the halloumi in a pan until golden brown, then remove from the heat and pour over the syrup.
