Cooking Instructions and Tips

Roast the Sweet Potatoes
1

Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9. Drain the halloumi, then cut it into 2cm chunks. Place them into a small bowl of cold water and leave to soak.

Chop the sweet potatoes into 1cm chunks (no need to peel). Pop onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.

Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 18-20 mins. Turn halfway through.

Halloumi Time
2

When ready to cook remove the halloumi cubes from the cold water, pop them onto a plate lined with kitchen paper and pat them dry.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.

Once hot, add the halloumi and fry, turning frequently, until golden, 6-7 mins.

Finish your Prep
3

While the halloumi cooks, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Zest and cut the lime into wedges (see ingredients for amount).

Once golden, transfer the tofu to a bowl, toss with the Thai style spice mix and set aside.

Build the Flavour
4

Pop the (now empty) pan back on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.

Once hot, add the garlic, ginger puree and tomato puree. Cook for 1 min.

Pour in the coconut milk, veg stock paste and water for the soup (see pantry for amount). Stir to combine, then bring to the boil.

Add the Spinach
5

Simmer until the sauce has reduced slightly, stirring occasionally, 3-4 mins.

Stir in the spinach a handful at a time until it's wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.

Remove from the heat, squeeze in some lime juice from a lime wedge and add half the soy sauce. Taste and add more lime juice and soy sauce if needed.

Finish and Serve
6

Stir the roasted sweet potato and fried halloumi through the stew. Add a splash more water if you feel it needs it. Reheat if needed.

When everything's piping hot, serve your sweet potato and halloumi stew in bowls.

Finish with a sprinkle of lime zest. Serve with the remaining lime wedges for squeezing over.
