Method

  1. Tip the crushed coriander seeds into a small jug with the harissa, lemon zest and juice, oil and honey. Season, then whisk to combine.
  2. Heat the grains to pack instructions, then tip into a bowl and mix in half the harissa dressing. Heat a frying pan over a high heat, add the halloumi and cook for 1 min each side until golden. Transfer to a plate.
  3. Mix the tomatoes, sugarsnap peas and watercress with the grains. Divide between 2 plates, top with the halloumi and drizzle over the remaining dressing to serve.
  • Tip: To make this vegan, use maple syrup instead of honey and swap the halloumi for tofu.
