Cooking Steps

1
  • In a medium bowl, place haloumi and cover with water to soak. Set aside.
  • In a large saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Toast pearl couscous, stirring occasionally, until golden, 1-2 minutes.
  • Carefully half-fill the saucepan with water, then add a pinch of salt. Simmer, uncovered, until tender, 14-16 minutes.
  • Drain, rinse and return to pan. Add vegetable stock pot and a drizzle of olive oil, tossing to combine.

  • Meanwhile, halve fennel bulb lengthways then cut into thin wedges (reserve some fronds for garnish!).
  • Halve snacking tomatoes.
  • Slice lemon into wedges.
3
  • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Cook fennel wedges, until tender and slightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Season and cover to keep warm.
4
  • Drain haloumi and pat dry. Cut the haloumi into 1cm-thick slices.
  • Wipe out frying pan and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
  • Cook haloumi until golden brown, 1-2 minutes each side.
5

  • To saucepan with pearl couscous, add snacking tomatoes, rocket leaves and a good squeeze of lemon juice.
