Crispy golden haloumi atop a luscious capsicum and fennel sauce - a dreamy vegetarian delight.
Ingredients:
  • 175g pkt Vine Sweet Minicaps Baby Capsicums, halved lengthways, deseeded
  • 1 baby fennel, trimmed, sliced
  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 2 fresh bay leaves
  • 80ml (1/3 cup) extra virgin olive oil
  • 20.00 ml ouzo (optional)
  • 180g pkt haloumi, sliced
  • Chopped fresh continental parsley, to serve
  • Lemon wedges, to serve
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 160C/140C fan forced. Combine capsicum, fennel, onion, garlic, and bay leaves in an ovenproof dish or frying pan. Drizzle with oil and ouzo, if desired. Bake for 1 hour until vegetables are extra soft.
  • Preheat a large non-stick frying pan over high heat. Sear the haloumi for 2 minutes on each side until golden. Arrange on top of the peperonata and garnish with parsley. Serve with a side of lemon.
