Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F/ 220°C in grill mode.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in an ovenproof, medium-large pan and saute the onions for two minutes.

Step 3

Add the garlic and cook for another minute, then add the courgettes, tomatoes, tomato puree and spices, cover with a lid and simmer for about 20 minutes. The tomatoes and courgettes will release water and turn into a sauce. In case they don't release enough juice, you can add a little bit of water or passata to adjust the consistency to your liking.

Step 4

Cover the dish with the halloumi slices and place it under the grill until the halloumi slices turn golden brown.

Step 5

Sprinkle with fresh basil and enjoy.
