READY. SET. RICE.
Prepare the oven or the Weber according to the Chef’s Tip instructions. Rinse the rice and place in a pot over medium-high heat. Submerge in 300ml of salted water and pop on a lid. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 25-30 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Keeping the lid on, remove from the heat and steam for 10 minutes. Drain if necessary and fluff up with a fork. Loosen the pesto with oil or water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency. Set aside for serving.
OVEN ROASTING OPTION
Cover a roasting tray with tinfoil. Spread out the onion wedges and the tomato wedges on the tray. Coat in oil, the rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 20-25 minutes until browned, shifting halfway. Cut the trimmed Aubergine in half lengthways. Place a pan, with a lid, over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the aubergine (cut-side down), cover with the lid, and fry for 4-5 minutes per side until soft and brown. Remove from the pan and season. Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the halloumi slabs and fry for 1-2 minutes per side until crispy and golden. Drain on paper towel.
WEBER BRAAI OPTION
Coat the Halloumi slabs in oil. Poke the trimmed Aubergine with a few holes and coat in oil and seasoning. Place the tomato wedges and the onion wedges in a tinfoil parcel with the top open. Coat in oil, the rub, and season. Once the coals are ready and your grid is cleaned down, place the whole aubergine on the grid. Braai for 10-15 minutes until soft and blackened, shifting halfway. Place the veg parcel on the grid, tossing occasionally, until cooked through. Place the halloumi slabs over the coolest area of the coals and braai for 2-3 minutes per side until charred. Drain on paper towel (if necessary). Cut the cooked aubergine in half lengthways. Remove the veg from the tinfoil for plating.
