  • Slice half of the onion into rings and finely chop the rest.
  • Melt a knob of butter in a pot or saucepan over medium-high heat and fry the chopped onion for 2 - 3 minutes.
  • Stir in the rice and fry for 2 more minutes, then crumble in the stock cube (see pantry for amount). 
  • Pour in plenty of water and boil the rice for 10 - 12 minutes, covered, then drain and set aside.
Fry the vegetables

  • Crush or mince the garlic. Pat the cheese dry with kitchen paper and dice into 1 - 2cm cubes.
  • Quarter the mushrooms and juice the lime.
  • Deseed both the Romano pepper and the bell pepper, then cut both into thin strips.
  • Melt a knob of butter in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the garlic with the rest of the onion for 3 - 4 minutes.

  • Stir in the Middle Eastern spices, mushrooms, bell pepper and Romano pepper and fry for 6 - 8 minutes.
  • Add 1 tsp lime juice per person and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Finely chop the parsley and transfer half to a bowl.

  • Shortly before serving, heat a clean non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the cheese for 3 - 4 minutes until evenly golden-brown.

  • Top with the yogurt sauce and garnish with the rest of the parsley.
