Preparation
Prepare the vegetables
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Quarter the zucchini lengthwise; cut crosswise into ½ inch pieces. In a small bowl, combine the zucchini, a drizzle of oil and S&P. Halve the cauliflower if large. Halve and peel the onion; small-dice ½ and cut the remaining ½ into ½ inch wedges. Mince the garlic.
Roast the vegetables
On a lined sheet pan, toss the cauliflower and onion wedges with a drizzle of oil, ⅔ of the spices and S&P. Roast, 9 to 10 min., until partially cooked. Remove from the oven, stir and add the zucchini and ⅔ of the garlic; toss well. Roast, 9 to 10 min., until the vegetables are lightly browned and tender.
Cook the bulgur
Meanwhile, in a medium pot, combine the bulgur, ¾ cup water (double for 4 portions) and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer, 6 to 8 min., until the bulgur is tender and the water has been absorbed. Fluff and keep warm.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, cut off the top and bottom of the orange so it sits flat on your cutting board; cut away the peel and white pith. Thinly slice, then quarter. Juice the lime. Pick the mint leaves off the stems; roughly chop the leaves. Roughly chop the parsley and cilantro leaves and stems. Combine the herbs in a small bowl.
Make the salsa & sear the halloumi
To the bowl of herbs, add the orange, lime juice, diced onion, remaining garlic and spices, 3 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions) and S&P; stir well. Rinse the halloumi and pat dry with paper towel; thinly slice. In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the halloumi and sear, 30 sec. to 1 min. per side, until golden brown.
Plate your dish
Divide the bulgur between your bowls. Top with the vegetables, halloumi and salsa. Crumble the cheese over top. Bon appétit!
