Instructions

Prep the veg

1

Cut the top and bottom off the courgette, slice into long strips about ½ cm thick. Cut the top off the red pepper and remove the seeds, slice into long strips. Drain and thoroughly rinse the lentils.

Fry the courgettes

2

Heat a frying pan with 1 tsp of olive oil over high heat. Fry the strips of courgette in the pan in batches, remove to one side. Repeat with the red pepper strips. Tip: You want the veg to char slightly, which is easier with less oil.

Remove the thyme leaves

3

Make a vinaigrette with 1 tbsp of lemon juice, the thyme leaves, 2 tbsp of olive oil, 1/4 tsp of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Tip: Pull your fingers along the thyme stalks to remove the leaves.

4

Drain and rinse the lentils then mix with the courgette, red pepper, rocket and the vinaigrette. Taste for seasoning and add more salt or pepper as required.

5

Cut the halloumi into slices 1cm thick. Coat in 11/2 tsp of olive oil and the zest from the lemon.

Fry the halloumi

6

Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Cook the halloumi for 2-3 mins on each side, until golden brown.

7

Divide the salad between your bowls and top with the halloumi.
