Honey-Lemon Halloumi & Jewelled Couscous
with Garden Salad & Herby Mayo
Halloumi is truly the king of cheeses, don’t you think? Salty, squeaky and pan-fried to golden deliciousness, it’s always a winner. Tonight, we’re adding lemon and honey for sweet and tangy goodness. And for something extra special, we’ll serve it alongside a bejewelled couscous, with vibrant carrot and sweet currants speckled throughout.
We’ve replaced the radish in this recipe with tomato due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!

Cooking Steps
• Grate carrot (see ingredients). • Thinly slice tomato into wedges. • Zest lemon to get a pinch, then slice into wedges. • Cut halloumi into 1cm slices. • In a small bowl, combine dried oregano (see ingredients), lemon zest, a squeeze of lemon juice and the honey.
• In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Add carrot and cook, stirring, until softened, 2-3 minutes. • Add the water and vegetable stock powder and bring to the boil. • Add couscous and currants, stir to combine. Cover with a lid and remove from heat. • Set aside until water is absorbed, 5 minutes. Fluff up with a fork.
• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook halloumi until golden brown, 1-2 minutes each side. • Remove from heat, then add honey-lemon mixture, turning to coat, until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• While halloumi is cooking, in a large bowl, combine tomato, mixed salad leaves, a good squeeze of lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil. Season to taste. • Divide jewelled couscous and garden salad between bowls. Top with honey-lemon halloumi. • Drizzle over dill & parsley mayonnaise. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
