Gently spiced with an aromatic blend of spices, this is a mean, green, veggie-loaded dinner machine!

Cooking Steps
- Add squash, half the Indian Spice Mix and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Roast in the middle of the oven, stirring halfway, until golden and tender, 18-22 min.
- While squash roasts, add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Once the water boiling, add rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min. Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Meanwhile, zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
- Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Roughly chop cilantro.
- Roughly chop spinach. (TIP: Place spinach in a bowl, then roughly chop using a pair of kitchen shears or scissors!)
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- While pan heats, cut halloumi into 1/2-inch cubes. Using a strainer, rinse halloumi in cold water, then pat dry with paper towels.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then halloumi. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan. For 4 ppl, cook in batches.) Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden-brown, 4-6 min. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
- Melt 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter in a small microwaveable bowl for 30 sec. Add half the cilantro. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to mix.
- Reheat the same pan over medium. When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil and onions. Cook, stirring often, until softened and golden, 3-4 min.
- Add ginger-garlic puree and remaining Indian Spice Mix. Stir to combine.
- Add coconut milk, halloumi, stock powder and lime juice to the pan with onion mixture. Bring to a simmer over high.
- Once simmering, reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring often, until sauce has thickened slightly and halloumi is tender, 3-4 min.
- While braise cooks, place flatbread directly on top rack of oven. Toast until lightly crisp, 2-4 min.
- Add squash and spinach to halloumi braise. Cook, stirring often, until spinach wilts, 1-2 min.
- Brush cilantro butter over flatbreads and tear or cut into wedges.
- Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in lime zest, half the crispy shallots and remining cilantro.
- Divide rice, halloumi braise and flatbreads between plates.
- Sprinkle remaining crispy shallots over top.
- Squeeze a lime wedge over top.
