I’ve been looking for recipes that will let me use my new casserole dish recently. When I came across this recipe for Creamy Green Halloumi & Chickpea Filo Pie, I knew I was onto a winner.

The dish started out by cooking some halloumi to develop some colour. Unfortunately, this is something I usually struggle with. Is my pan hot enough? Too hot? Should I be using oil? Does my halloumi need to be drier? Have you been involved in accident that wasn’t your fault? All of these questions often tend to get in my way, leaving my halloumi either stuck to the pan or looking pale and sad. For this recipe, I opted to cook my halloumi on a high heat with no oil in a stainless steel pan which seemed to do a pretty good job. I was still met with a bit of unwanted pan-stickage, but overall managed to get some nice golden-brown colour. I think I will use this same technique next time.

Recently, I’ve been wanting to cook with more seasonal ingredients. The problem with this is that I don’t really have a good idea of which ingredients are in season at any given time. To try and fix this, I decided to go to the Bowhouse market and pick up some fresh veg. There was a really great selection, and I’ll definitely be going back, but the rainbow chard caught my eye the most on this occasion.
