Instructions

1

a) Drain the halloumi, then cut it into 3 slices per person. Place into a small bowl of cold water and leave to soak.

b) Drain and rinse the black beans in a sieve. Mash half of them with a fork. 

c) Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips, then chop into roughly 1cm chunks.

d) Zest the lime, then juice half and cut the other half into wedges.

2

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan. Once hot, add the pepper chunks and fry until just soft, 3-4 mins. Continue to stir while it cooks.

b) Add the mashed and whole black beans, lime juice and tomato puree to the pan. Season with salt and pepper and stir to heat through for 2 mins. Pop into a bowl and cover to keep warm. Wipe out the pan ready for step 3.

c) Remove the halloumi slices from the water and pat dry with kitchen paper.

3

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the halloumi and fry until golden, 2-3 mins each side.

b) When you flip the halloumi, add the Mexican style spice mix and honey (see pantry for amount). Turn to coat the halloumi.

c) Meanwhile, microwave the rice for 2 minutes.

4

a) Fluff up the rice with a fork, then stir through the lime zest.

b) Spread the zesty rice evenly across the bottom of each bowl. In sections, arrange the fried black beans, spiced halloumi and a dollop of smashed avocado.

c) Drizzle the soured cream over everything.

d) Garnish with a lime wedge for squeezing over to finish. 

Enjoy!
