Halloumi and pepperoni vegetable bake

Of course you can omit the salami and make this a totally vegetarian dish, but fo rme, the crispy, meaty bite of pepperoni makes this vegetable bake so yummy.

Use whatever vegetables you have, either fresh or left-over. Pick what you fancy, not what I list here. As long as you bear in mind that the thickness of the vegetables determine how they cook, you can use whatever veg. you please.

  Most of the basic ingredients

Method

1. Add the dry spices to a large baking tray and jiggle well to distribute evenly
2. Add the remaining ingredients and mix very well so tat everything is evenly mixed
3. Bake for 35 minutes at the top of the oven, stirring and mixing well every 10 minutes or so
4. Depending upon the types of vegetables you use, they may leech out large amounts of water which tends to steam the vegetables rather than roast them. If this happens, just drain and discard any excess every time you turn them

Serve with air-fried roast potatoes

Chef's notes

If you don't have the whole spices or the fresh herbs, don;t worry, use what you have have available. Dried herbs work well in this recipe too.
