Ingredients

  • 80g halloumi
  • 150g couscous
  • 80g butternut squash
  • 80g cherry tomatoes
  • 20g harissa paste
  • 10g lemon juice
  • 50g greek yoghurt
  • fresh mint

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the butternut squash and cherry tomatoes, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Pour just-boiled stock over the couscous, cover for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

  3. 3

    Slice the halloumi and dry-fry in a griddle pan for 2 minutes per side until charred.

  4. 4

    Loosen the harissa with lemon juice and brush it over the protein before cooking. Swirl a little extra harissa through the yoghurt to serve.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the butternut squash and cherry tomatoes for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: couscous first, then the veg and halloumi, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the fresh mint.
