Halloumi cheese has a salty, almost meaty character that lends itself perfectly to sweet caramelised vegetables such as this slow cooked pepper & onion mixture; which become sweet & sour & almost chutney-like. Our couscous and lambs lettuce salad is dressed in a tangy spicy dressing made from harissa paste (an earthy chilli paste from Morocco).

Slice the halloumi into sticks (see picture)
Combine the harissa paste with 2 tbsp [4 tbsp] olive oil, half of the white wine vinegar (keep the rest for later), 2 tbsp [4 tbsp] boiled water and 1 tsp [2 tsp] sugar and mix well - this is your harissa dressing
Fluff the couscous with a fork
Wash the lambs lettuce, then add it to the couscous
Add most of the harissa dressing (keep a little for garnish) and toss thoroughly
Add the remaining white wine vinegar and 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] sugar to the pepper and onion pan, and cook for 2 min further, then transfer them to the salad bowl and wipe the pan clean with kitchen paper
