Cooking Steps

Cook the garlic rice
1

• Thinly slice carrot into half-moons. 
• Finely chop garlic. 
• Cut halloumi into 1cm-thick slices.
• In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium 
heat. Cook half the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add basmati rice, the 
water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt, stir, then bring to the boil.
• Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid.
• Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is 
tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes. 


TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek! 

Start the curry
2

• In a medium bowl, combine Mumbai spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. 
• Add halloumi and toss to coat.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook halloumi until browned and cooked through, 2-4 minutes each side. Transfer to a plate. 
• Return pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook carrot until 
tender, 4-5 minutes. 
• Add ginger paste, tomato paste (see ingredients), Bengal curry paste and 
the remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 2 minutes.

TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the ginger paste starts to spatter!

Finish the curry
3

• Return halloumi to the pan.

• Reduce heat to medium-low, then simmer until sauce has slightly thickened, 
2-3 minutes. 
• Add baby spinach leaves and stir until wilted, 1-2 minutes.

Finish & serve
4
