Cooking steps
- Preheat your oven (for the tortillas) to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
- Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm chunks.
- Drain and rinse the corn in a sieve.
- Drain the halloumi then cut into slices (3 per person). Add to a bowl of cold water.
- Trim and thinly slice the scallion.
TIP: To avoid turning on your oven, dry-fry the tortillas in a pan instead.
- Place a large pan (preferably non-stick) over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, add the bell pepper and corn and season with salt and pepper.
- Fry until the bell pepper has softened and the corn has coloured slightly, 4-5 mins. Once charred, remove from the pan and cover to keep warm.
- Meanwhile, add the aioli and chipotle paste to a bowl. Mix together and leave to the side.
- Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Remove the haloumi slices from the water and pat dry with kitchen paper. Toss with Central American spice.
- Once the pan is hot, add the halloumi and fry until golden, 2-3 mins each side.
- Once cooked, remove the pan from the heat.
- Meanwhile, pop tortillas into the oven to warm through for 2-3 mins.
NOTE: Adding falafel? After cooking the cheese, fry the falafel in a hot pan for 3-5 mins, turning frequently for even cooking.
- Halve each halloumi slice widthways.
- Serve chipotle aioli, tortillas, veg, smashed avo, golden fried halloumi and scallion separately.
- Assemble yourself at the table!
