Instructions
Boil a half-full kettle.
Thoroughly rinse the sushi rice under cold water in a sieve until it runs clear.
Pour the boiled water for the rice (see pantry for amount) into a medium saucepan, bring back to the boil on high heat. Stir in the sushi rice and turn the heat down to low.
Drain the halloumi, then cut it into 2cm chunks. Place them into a small bowl of cold water and leave to soak.
Meanwhile, remove the halloumi from the cold water, pop them onto a plate lined with kitchen paper and pat dry.
Heat a large non-stick frying pan on high heat with a drizzle of oil.
Once hot, fry the halloumi, 6-7 mins. Turn frequently.
While the halloumi fries, halve the baby corn lengthways, then halve again widthways. Halve the pea pods widthways. Cut the lime into quarters. Thinly slice the red chilli.
Once the halloumi is crispy, pop it in a bowl and set aside for later.
Put the (now empty) pan back on medium-high heat with a drizzle more oil.
Once hot, add the Thai style spice mix, baby corn, pea pods and half the chilli. Stir-fry until starting to go tender, 1-2 mins.
Once the veg is slightly tender, stir in the yellow Thai style paste and stir-fry until fragrant, 30 secs.
Stir in the coconut milk, soy, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts). Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 3-4 mins.
Once thickened, remove from the heat. Stir in the halloumi and squeeze in some lime juice.
Taste and season with salt, pepper and more lime juice if you feel it needs it.
When everything's ready, press your rice into small bowls, then carefully turn out onto the centre of your serving plates.
Spoon the halloumi curry around the rice. Sprinkle over the remaining chilli (add less if you'd prefer things milder).
Serve any remaining lime wedges alongside for squeezing over.
