Instructions

Rinse split peas thoroughly and boil in 2 cups of water with the grated turmeric root until tender and creamy, about 25-30 minutes. The texture should be thick and porridge-like.

While the peas simmer, heat a small non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add the halloumi slices and sear until golden brown and crisp on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

In the same pan, quickly blister the jalapeño slices for 30 seconds until charred at the edges.

Stir the crushed coriander seeds into the warm split pea mash.

To serve, spoon the fragrant turmeric-infused split peas into a shallow bowl. Arrange the golden halloumi slices on top and garnish with the charred jalapeño slices. The dish should be aromatic, savory, and provide a satisfying textural contrast between the creamy pulses and squeaky, salty cheese.
