Ingredients

  • 2 tomatoes, finely chopped
  • ½ red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 tsp cider vinegar
  • 2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 cauliflower, cut into florets, stalks cut into 5cm pieces
  • 1 broccoli, cut into florets, stalks cut into 5cm pieces
  • 3 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 450g halloumi, cut into 2.5cm cubes
  • cooked couscous, to serve (optional)

Method

  1. Mix the tomatoes, onion, lemon juice, cider vinegar, half the dried oregano and ½ tsp black pepper together in a bowl.

  2. Light the barbecue. Bring a pan of water to the boil and cook the cauliflower florets along with the stalk and broccoli stalk pieces for 3 mins. In the final minute, tip in the broccoli florets. Drain the veg, then toss with 2 tsp of the olive oil, the rest of the oregano and the paprika.

  3. When the coals are ashen, arrange the veg pieces on the grill, cook for 2 mins, then move to a cooler part of the grill. Keep moving the veg around so it doesn’t burn.

  4. Put the halloumi on the grill and cook for 1 min, then turn. Repeat until all sides are brown.

  5. Tip all the veg and the halloumi into a serving bowl, drizzle with the remaining olive oil, season and serve immediately with couscous.
