This halloumi and spinach curry recipe appeared in this month's Sainsbury's magazine. As I post this recipe, it's not on the Sainsbury's recipe website. I liked the look of the curry and already had a block of halloumi in the fridge. The spices and stock were already in the kitchen cupboards, so all I needed to buy was some fresh cherry tomatoes and a bag of baby spinach.
The prep time is minimal and the curry is ready in half an hour - perfect! It will serve 2 for a main course in the evening, or 3 for lunch.
The curry has a lovely depth of flavour and with the sweet pops of tomatoes, fresh spinach and salty baked halloumi, it's a delicious combination of flavours.
Tips
- Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for 2 to 3 days, or frozen in portions.
- This halloumi and spinach curry recipe is easily adapted if you’re cooking for more people.
