Warm pearled spelt, halloumi and kale salad

It's still winter since I last time checked, and I feel like hibernating. But since I'm wide awake, I might as well have a good time and eat nice food.

Today I made a warm salad with hearty ingredients halloumi, pearled spelt and kale. This is how it's made.

250 g halloumi cheese

1 tbsp vegetable oil (for halloumi frying)

2 shallots

2 garlic cloves

1 tbsp olive oil

1 orange romano pepper

1 cup pearled spelt

200 g curly kale

2 tsp vegetable stock powder + 500 ml water

½ tsp pepper

1 tsp salt

Dice the halloumi and fry the dices in vegetable oil until golden brown. Set to side.

Chop the shallots, garlic and romano pepper. Heat olive oil in a pan and sweat the shallots and garlic in the pan for a few minutes. Then add the pepper, the vegetable stock powder and water to the pan and also the pearled spelt. Cook for about 15 minutes until the spelt is tender. Season with salt and pepper.

Remove any large stalks of the kale and boil it in water for about 5 minutes and drain.

Add the kale and halloumi to the spelt pan. Serve warm and keep yourself warm!
