This spiced traybake of sweet potato, pepper, halloumi and a fresh yoghurt sauce is perfect for those days when you don’t really feel like cooking. Because on those days we fill the baking tray with ingredients and let the oven do the work.
Ingredients for 4 people:
For the tray bake
3 cloves garlic, crushed
3 tablespoons of olive oil
2 teaspoons ground cumin seeds
1 teaspoon oregano, dried
1 kilo sweet potato, cubed
450 grams halloumi, thinly sliced
1 zucchini
1 red pepper, in strips
1 yellow pepper, cut into strips
2 red onions, quartered
20 grams of pomegranate seeds
Mint and coriander
For the yogurt sauce
100 grams of Greek yogurt
1/2 clove garlic, grated
1 teaspoon dill, dried
1 teaspoon mint, dried
1 teaspoon of honey
1 teaspoon lemon juice
This is how you make it:
Preheat the oven to 220 degrees.
Mix the oil, garlic, cumin seeds and oregano in a bowl. Set the marinade aside and continue with the traybake. Add the sweet potato, halloumi, zucchini, peppers, and onions to a baking sheet. Pour the marinade over it and toss well. Place the traybake in the oven and heat for 30 minutes. Prick the sweet potato to see if the ingredients are done, as it has the longest cooking time.
In the meantime, mix all the ingredients for the yogurt sauce in a bowl. Put the yogurt sauce in the refrigerator so that it stays nice and cold.
Remove the baking tray from the oven. Sprinkle the traybake with pomegranate seeds, mint and coriander.
Arrange the halloumi and vegetables on the plates. Drizzle some of the fresh yoghurt sauce over the traybake, or serve alongside it in a bowl.
