Cooking steps

Get Prepped
1
  • Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
  • Chop the sweet potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 2cm wide wedges (peeling optional). 
  • Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
  • Thinly slice tomato.
  • Drain the halloumi then chop lengthways to create 2 slices. Add to a bowl of cold water.
Cook the Sweet Potato
2
  • Pop the wedges onto a large (lined) baking tray.
  • Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat.
  • Spread out in a single layer.
  • When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 20-25 mins. Turn the tray halfway through. 
  • Add the bacon for the final 8-10  mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.

TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

Caramelise the Onion
3
  • Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, add the onion, season with salt and pepper and fry until soft and sweet, 8-10 mins, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the balsamic vinegar and a pinch of sugar and cook until the balsamic has evaporated, 1-2 mins.
  • Remove the onion and set aside.
Fry the Halloumi
4
  • Return the pan to medium-high heat.
  • Remove the halloumi slices from the cold water and pat dry with kitchen paper.
  • Drizzle a small bit of oil in the pan.
  • Once hot, add the halloumi and fry until golden, 2-3 mins each side. 
Warm the Buns
5
  • While the halloumi is frying, pop the buns into the oven to warm, 2-3 mins.
  • In a small bowl, mix the pesto and aioli together to make the sauce. 
Dish Up
6
  • Spread each bun with the pesto aioli, then top with the halloumi, bacon, salad leaves, onion and tomato.
  • Serve with the sweet potato wedges and any remaining sauce alongside.
