Cooking Steps

Roast the veggies
1

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Cut onion (see ingredients) into bite-sized chunks. • Place onion, diced beetroot and peeled pumpkin pieces on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 25-30 minutes. TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.

Get prepped
2

• While the veggies are roasting, finely chop garlic. Zest lemon to get a pinch, then cut into wedges. Roughly chop baby leaves. • Cut halloumi into 1cm slices. • In a medium bowl, combine Middle Eastern seasoning (see ingredients), the salt and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with pepper, then add halloumi, turning to coat.

Cook the halloumi
3

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook halloumi, until golden brown, 1-2 minutes each side. • Remove pan from heat and drizzle over honey. 

Make the couscous
4

• While the halloumi is cooking, heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat with the butter. Cook garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add the water and chicken-style stock powder and bring to the boil. • Add the couscous and stir to combine, then cover with a lid and remove from the heat. Set aside until all the water is absorbed, 5 minutes. Fluff up with a fork. • Add the roasted veggies, baby leaves and lemon zest to the couscous and stir to combine. Season to taste.

Make the lemon yoghurt
5

• In a small bowl, combine Greek-style yoghurt and a squeeze of lemon juice. Season to taste.

Finish & serve
6

• Slice honey-glazed halloumi. • Divide roast veggie couscous between bowls and top with halloumi, spooning over any resting juices. • Drizzle with lemon yoghurt and tear over parsley. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
