Cooking Steps

Cook the garlic rice
1

• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, heat half the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook half the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add the water and a generous pinch of salt, then bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from heat. • Keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!

Get prepped

• Meanwhile, thinly slice apple and celery.

Flavour the halloumi
3

• In a medium bowl, combine Jerk spice blend (see ingredients) and a drizzle of olive oil. • Add halloumi and toss to coat.

Cook the halloumi
4

• When the rice has 5 minutes remaining, heat a large frying pan over high heat with the remaining butter and a drizzle of olive oil. • When oil is hot, cook halloumi until golden brown, 1-2 minutes each side. • In the last minute, add remaining garlic and cook until fragrant. Remove from heat.
