Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 240ºC/220ºC fan-forced. Boil the kettle. Chop cauliflower (including stalk!) into small florets. Cut carrot into bite-sized chunks. Cut onion (see ingredients) into wedges. • Place veggies on a lined oven tray and sprinkle over garlic & herb seasoning. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Spread out evenly, then roast until tender and brown around edges, 20-25 minutes.
• In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Toast Israeli couscous, stirring occasionally, until golden, 1-2 minutes. • Half-fill saucepan with boiling water, then add a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then simmer, uncovered, until tender, 10-12 minutes. • Drain couscous and return to the pan with a drizzle of olive oil.
• Cut haloumi into 1cm slices. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook haloumi, until golden brown, 1-2 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Remove pan from heat, add the honey and turn haloumi to coat.
• Add the roasted veggies to the Israeli couscous, along with basil pesto and baby spinach leaves. Stir to combine. • Divide Mediterranean couscous between bowls. Top with honey-glazed haloumi. Enjoy!
