• Finely chop brown onion and garlic.
• In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a
dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook onion
until softened, 3-4 minutes.
• Add garlic, Tex-Mex spice blend and tomato
paste (see ingredients) and cook until fragrant,
1-2 minutes. Add basmati rice, the water and
vegetable stock powder, stirring to combine.
Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to low and
cover with a lid.
• Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from heat.
Keep covered until rice is tender and water is
absorbed, 15 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so
don’t peek!
• While the rice is cooking, add haloumi to a
medium bowl and cover with water to soak.
• Slice kernels off corn cob.
• Finely chop tomato and cucumber.
• Roughly chop coriander.
• Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook corn
kernels until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes.
• Transfer charred corn to a second medium bowl.
• To the bowl with corn, add tomato, cucumber,
coriander and a drizzle of white wine vinegar
and olive oil. Toss to combine. Season with salt
and pepper to taste.
TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the corn kernels are
‘popping’ out.
• Drain haloumi and pat dry with paper towel.
• Cut haloumi into 1cm-thick slices.
• When the rice has 5 minutes remaining, return
frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of
olive oil.
• Cook haloumi until golden brown, 1-2 minutes
each side.
• Remove pan from heat, then add the honey,
turning haloumi to coat.
• Divide Mexican rice between bowls.
• Top with charred corn salsa and glazed haloumi.
• Dollop over light sour cream to serve. Enjoy!
