Halloumi Wraps with Baharat and Pomegranate Seeds
1 min read

Cook: 5 - 10 minutes

Serves: 2

Pomegranate seeds give a lovely pop of flavour and balance the earthiness of the baharat, and the chutney elevates this quick lunch to a real midday treat. If you don’t want to make your own baharat, feel free to buy it. Using ice cubes when blitzing the chutney keeps your herbs bright green. I’ve used one chilli, but you can add more or less, depending on your preference.

Method

  • To make the chutney: Pick the mint leaves and discard the hard stalks. Roughly chop your coriander – you can use the stalks too as they will blitz down fine and add bags of flavour. Chop the end off your chilli and discard.

  • Cut the rest into chunks, keeping the seeds.

  • Place in your blender with the salt, sugar, lemon juice and ice cubes.
