Halloumi With Chickpea Salsa Couscous Recipes

Steps:

• Firstly, put the kettle on then cut broccoli into florets and thickly slice stalk. Pour boiling water into a steamer, steam broccoli for 6 mins, add the peas and steam for 2 mins more.
• Meanwhile, mix the couscous with the spices in a bowl, pour over the hot stock, then cover and leave to stand for 5 mins.
• Heat a non-stick frying pan or griddle pan. Cut halloumi into 6-8 slices and cook quickly on each side for 2 mins until lightly tinged brown.
• Mix vegetables and tomatoes into couscous, fork in the lemon juice, oil and coriander. Pile onto plates and top with halloumi.

Steps:

• Cook the beans in a pan of boiling water for 3 mins until just tender, adding the chickpeas for the final min of cooking. Meanwhile, make the dressing: in a large bowl, whisk the lime juice and zest with 3 tbsp of the oil and the chilli. Season. Drain the chickpeas and beans and, while warm, toss with the dressing.
• Pour boiling water over the red onion, leave for 5 mins to soften, then drain and rinse. Add the peppers, tomatoes, rocket, parsley and softened onion to the bean bowl. Toss to coat everything in the dressing, then divide between 2 plates.
• Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan, add the halloumi slices and fry for about 1 min on each side until golden. Place a few warm halloumi slices on top of each salad and serve.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a pan, then gently fry the chilli and ginger for 1 min. Stir in chickpeas, spinach and peppers, then season. Cover, then cook gently for 3-4 mins, stirring occasionally, until the spinach has wilted and the chickpeas are warmed through.
• Meanwhile, heat a non-stick frying pan until piping hot. Cut the halloumi into 6 slices and quickly fry for 1-2 mins each side. Stir the lemon juice into the chickpeas and divide between two plates. Top with the halloumi and serve immediately.

Steps:

• First make the chickpea salsa by mixing the first six ingredients together.
• Put the couscous in a bowl and pour over the harissa and hot water. Set aside.
• Heat the grill (broiler) or barbeque. Mix the garlic, lemon juice and olive oil and toss in a bowl with the aubergine, peppers and halloumi.
• Cook the vegetables and cheese for a few minutes each side until nicely browned. If you are using the barbeque, it's a good idea to put the vegetables and cheese on a baking tray or well oiled sheet of foil. Keep an eye on the halloumi. It will cook quicker than the aubergine and peppers.
• Gently fry the walnuts in the butter, then mix through the couscous with a fork. Spoon onto a plate and scatter over the vegetables and halloumi. Top with some fresh coriander(cilantro) and serve with the chickpea salsa.
