Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Rub 1 tsp of olive oil over the potatoes, place on a baking tray and sprinkle with salt. Prick the potatoes once or twice each. Bake for 1 hr to 1 hr 15 mins until the skin is crispy and golden.
  2. When the potatoes are almost cooked, cook the red chilli and peppers over a medium heat with the oil for 5 mins until softened. Stir in the beans and bring to a simmer.
  3. In a large frying pan, heat the remaining oil and fry the halloumi over a medium-high heat for 5-8 mins until golden. Remove, then fry your eggs, if using, in the same pan.
  4. Cut the potato and fill with the beans. Top with the halloumi and fried egg, then scatter over the seeds (if using) and mint.
