Cost: -

Serves: 4

Ease: ***

Prep Time: 30 Minutes

Cook Time: -

Cook the rice gently in 1 1/2 mugs of boiling water until all the water has boiled away. Once cooked, remove from the heat and set aside.
Meanwhile heat the butter and oil in a large frying pan or wok and fry the onions until they are browned and caramelised. Keep on a medium heat to make sure they don’t burn and keep stirring them. May take about 8 – 10 minutes to go really brown.
Add the garlic, cumin and coriander to the pan, along with the lentils. Cook for 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Stir in the cooked rice, pine nuts and the herbs.
Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the haloumi. Fry until it browns a little. Remove from the pan, stir into the rice mix and serve.

The Nosh Team - we use a 300ml mug or half of a pint, I assume you are in the UK though as our pints are different to the US :-) basically for rice, as long as your mug is not massive and is a "normal" size you should be fine.
