Mediterranean Grains With Halloumi & Poached Egg

Our Mediterranean-inspired Tasty Grains are full of flavour and are delicious in this quick and satisfying veggie brunch or lunch.

Method

Poach (or fry) the eggs to your liking.

Prepare the grains according to the packet instructions and fluff with a fork.

Meanwhile heat a little oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the halloumi and cook on one side for 1-2 minutes until golden. Turn to cook the other side and add in the tomatoes. When the halloumi is golden on both sides and the tomatoes have softened slightly remove the pan from the heat and sprinkle with the chilli flakes.

Divide the grains between two serving bowls or plates. Add the halloumi slices and tomatoes and top with a poached/fried egg. Drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil, lightly season the egg with salt (be careful the cheese is salty) and a good grind of black pepper. Garnish with oregano or basil leaves.
