red pepper 1, quartered, seeds and stem removed
olive oil 4 tbsp
garlic 1 clove, crushed
thyme 1 tsp of leaves
baby plum tomatoes 6, halved
spring onions 3, chopped
halloumi 250g, sliced

Method

Step 1

Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Put the mushrooms and pepper on a baking tray with a lip. Mix 3 tbsp of olive oil with ¹/2 the garlic and ¹/2 the thyme, and brush a little over the mushrooms and pepper. Tuck the tomatoes and spring onions inside the mushrooms, drizzle with the rest of the garlic/herb oil and season. Cover loosely with foil then bake for 20 minutes, turning the pepper quarters once. Remove the foil and bake for a further 10 minutes.
Step 2

Take out of the oven and turn on the grill. Add a pepper quarter to the top of each mushroom then top with a couple of slices of halloumi.
Step 3

Slide under the grill until the halloumi is golden on top.
Step 4

Mix 1 tbsp oil with the rest of the thyme, garlic, capers and chilli. Spoon over the halloumi and serve on a bed of rocket.
