Method
- STEP 1
Make up the ciabatta bread mix following the pack instructions and leave while you make the filling.
- STEP 2
Heat a non-stick frying pan with 1 tbsp oil, then add the onion, garlic and peppers and cook until soft. Add the spices, some seasoning and cook for a few minutes, then stir in the parsley and take off the heat. Cool and mix in the grated halloumi.
- STEP 3
Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Divide the dough into 4, then roll out into long oval shapes. Divide the cheese and pepper mix between the ovals leaving a 1cm border. Pinch the dough at each end so you are making a kind of slipper shape.

Bake for 20 minutes until puffed and golden, then brush the breads all over with melted butter and serve with pickled chillies.
