Preparation
Sear the halloumi
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Rinse the halloumi, pat dry and medium-dice; season with ¼ of the spices.
- In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium.
- Add the halloumi and sear, 30 sec. to 1 min. per side, until golden brown.
- Transfer to a plate and reserve the pan.
Make the curry
- In the same pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium.
- Add the tomato paste, ginger-garlic purée and remaining spices. Sauté, 1 min., until fragrant.
- Add the spinach, 1 cup water (double for 4 portions) and S&P; bring to a boil.
- Reduce to a simmer and cook, covered stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 min., until wilted.
- Add the peas, cream, 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) and halloumi. Cook, stirring often, 2 to 3 min., until the sauce thickens.
- If the sauce seems dry, gradually add up to ½ cup water until you achieve your desired consistency; season with S&P.
Toast the naan
- Meanwhile, toast the naan directly on an oven rack, 2 to 3 min., until warmed through.
- Transfer to a cutting board and cut into wedges.
Plate your dish
- Divide the curry between your plates.
- Serve the naan on the side. Bon appétit!
