A great recipe for anyone who can or can not cook well! There’s no skill whatsoever required, the flavour packs a real punch and there’s a good 50g of protein in the meal. Eat as is or serve with sourdough bread. This meal is so quick and will leave you planning to buy the ingredients again asap so you can make it regularly 🙂

Ingredients for one hungry person, great to eat straight after a workout

1 Tbsp. olive oil + 2 Tbsp. olive oil

180g Halloumi, wrapped in a paper towel for a few minutes to absorb any liquid. Unwrap after a few minutes and cut into bite-size cubes

6 vine-ripened tomatoes, yellow if you can get them otherwise red is perfectly fine. Quarter these tomatoes

240g white beans, drained (240g is the amount of beans you should have once they’ve been drained of their fluids). Rinse under cold water and drain but no need to be too pedantic, this step should only take a minute or two

1 Pak Choi, sliced

2 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar

1 Tbsp. maple syrup

Salt

Pepper

Chilli flakes

• Heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil I a medium hot pan. Fry the halloumi pieces until golden brown

• Add the tomatoes to the pan while the halloumi is still browning, fleshy side facing down

• After about 4 minutes add the beans to the pan, plus 2 Tbsp. olive oil, maple syrup, balsamic and a good sprinkling of salt and pepper. Leave to bubble away for 3-5 minutes throwing the Pak Choi slices in about half way through the cooking time. Stir a couple of times after adding the vegetable and then leave for the juices to thicken.

• You‘re done! Season everything to your liking and eat straight away, burning your mouth pleasantly as you hungrily gobble everything up 😊
