Finely chop the garlic.In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add basmati rice, the water 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 the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10 minutes. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
• While the rice is cooking, finely chop the cucumber. Roughly chop the tomato. Pick the mint leaves and finely chop. Roughly chop the baby spinach leaves. Zest the lemon to get a pinch, then slice into wedges. • Cut halloumi into 1cm slices. In a medium bowl, combine the Middle Eastern seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add the halloumi and toss until well coated.
Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the flaked almonds and toast, tossing, until golden, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. In a second medium bowl, combine a squeeze of lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil. Add the cucumber and tomato. Toss to combine and season to taste. Set aside.
• Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook halloumi, until golden brown, 1-2 minutes each side. Remove from the heat and stir through the honey.
While the pork is cooking, combine the lemon zest, mint and Greek-style yoghurt in a second small bowl. Season with salt and set aside. Add the baby spinach to the garlic rice, season to taste and stir through until wilted slightly.
Divide the garlic rice between bowls. Top with the Middle Eastern honey halloumi, cucumber salsa and mint yoghurt. Garnish with the toasted almonds. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
