From your kitchen:

CHAR THE CORN
Place a pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the corn until charred, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
CRUNCHY CHICKPEAS
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, toast the drained chickpeas until golden and crispy, 12-15 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and season.
FILLINGS FOR YOU
Add the diced onion and the diced cucumber to the bowl of charred corn. Add ½ the chopped parsley, ¾ of the pickling liquid, the sliced chilli (to taste), a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. Set aside. In a separate bowl, combine the cottage cheese with the remaining pickling liquid (to taste), the remaining parsley, and seasoning. Loosen with milk (optional) or water in 5ml increments if too thick. Set aside. Toss the rinsed green leaves with a drizzle of olive oil and seasoning.
HEATING UP
When the chickpeas are almost crispy, place a second pan over medium-high heat. When hot, toast each roti until warmed through, 30-60 seconds per side. Alternatively, spread them out on a plate in a single layer and heat up in the microwave, 30-60 seconds.
FRY THE HALLOUMI
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the halloumi slabs until crispy and golden, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towel.
AND THAT’S A WRAP!
Lay out the rotis and smear generously with the parsley cottage cheese. Pile the leaves, the toasted chickpeas, and the halloumi slabs in the centre and top with the corn salsa. Garnish with any remaining fresh chilli if you’re feeling spicy! Fold ’em up and dig in.
