Ingredients

  • 80g halloumi
  • 160g pasta
  • 80g aubergine
  • 80g mushrooms
  • 200g chopped tomatoes
  • 9g garlic
  • 5g olive oil
  • a handful of fresh basil
  • 8g parmesan

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the aubergine and mushrooms, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Cook the wholewheat pasta in salted boiling water for 10-12 minutes until al dente; save a splash of pasta water.

  3. 3

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

  4. 4

    Gently fry the garlic in the olive oil, add the chopped tomatoes and simmer for 10-12 minutes until rich. Tear in the basil at the end.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the aubergine and mushrooms for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: wholewheat pasta first, then the veg and halloumi, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the parmesan.
