  1. RICE

    Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 200ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.

  2. GINGER, RUB & VEG

    Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. When hot, fry the diced onions until soft, 2-3 minutes. Add the ginger & rub mix and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the rinsed spinach and the peas, and fry until the spinach is slightly wilted, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the pan and season.

  3. JUST BEFORE SERVING

    Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the halloumi until crispy and golden, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel. In a bowl, combine the creamy mustard and the lemon juice (to taste). Loosen with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency and season. Combine the cooked rice with the loaded spinach and season.

  4. TIME TO EAT

    Make a bed of the loaded rice, top with the halloumi slices. Drizzle over the creamy mustard sauce and sprinkle over the almonds. Garnish with the chopped parsley. Well done, Chef!
