Method

  1. 1

    Preheat the grill to high, or use a griddle pan.

  2. 2

    Slice the courgette and halve the cherry tomatoes. Toss with half the olive oil and grill or griddle for 6–8 minutes until charred, adding the tomatoes for the last 2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Slice the halloumi and fry or griddle for 1–2 minutes each side until golden.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile, put the couscous in a bowl, pour over the hot stock, cover and leave for 5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Fluff the couscous, stir through the remaining olive oil, lemon juice and chopped mint.

  6. 6

    Season to taste, then top with the roasted vegetables and grilled halloumi.

Use up the rest

Cooking this for one leaves 25 g mint, 130 g halloumi and 130 g cherry tomato. These recipes finish them off, so plan one later in the same week.

Good with the rest of your week
