Cooking Steps
ā¢ In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. ā¢ Cook garlic paste until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add basmati rice, the water and a generous pinch of salt, stir, then bring to the boil. ā¢ 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!
ā¢ While rice is cooking, roughly chop tomato, cucumber and baby spinach leaves. ā¢ Cut haloumi into bite-sized pieces.
ā¢ In a medium bowl, combine tomato, cucumber, spinach and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. ā¢ In another medium bowl, combine haloumi and cornflour (see ingredients).
ā¢ When rice has 10 minutes remaining, in a large frying pan, heat enough olive oil to cover base and over medium-high heat. ā¢ When oil is hot, shake excess flour off and cook haloumi, tossing, until golden brown, 2-4 minutes. ā¢ Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
ā¢ Wipe out frying pan and return to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. ā¢ Cook Mumbai spice blend and ginger paste, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute. ā¢ Stir in coconut milk and simmer until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. ā¢ Add cooked haloumi and toss to coat. Season to taste.
ā¢ Divide garlic rice between bowls. ā¢ Top with popcorn haloumi and spoon over Mumbai sauce. ā¢ Serve with tamarind chutney and cucumber salsa. Enjoy!
