Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C/Gas 6/fan oven 180C. Cut the peppers in half through the stalks and scoop out the seeds. Put the peppers in one layer on a baking sheet. Drain the mushrooms, reserving the oil from the jar - drizzle one tablespoon of the oil over the peppers, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the peppers are just tender.
  2. Tip the couscous into a bowl and pour in the hot stock. Leave for 5 minutes to soak, then fluff up with a fork and stir in the mushrooms, halloumi and parsley. Season with salt and pepper and spoon into the pepper halves. Return to the oven for 15 minutes, until the cheese is golden. Serve the peppers warm with a mixed salad and garlic bread.

    Really delicious meal, only change I made was to fry off some fresh mushrooms instead of using a jar.

    I made these on Saturday night and have to say they were really delicious. Very very simple to prepare and a short baking time made them perfect for a tv supper. I added some halved cherry tomatoes and jalapeños for a kick. Will make again for sure.

    I used saluted onions, garlic and fresh mushrooms. It was so scummy, even my meat loving partner said she'd go veggie for it!

    Loved this simple recipe! I swapped the mushrooms for courgette instead - I put the chopped courgette in the oven at the same time as the peppers before adding it to the couscous and cheese mix. Beautiful and will def be doing this again! :-)

    Used Ainsleys couscous, mixed coriander with parsley and used fresh mushrooms instead. Very tasty and easy to prepare even for a beginner.

    Simple, tasty and great to prep ahead. Used fresh mushrooms cooked in lots of garlic and also added some roasted flaked almonds as I like the additional slightly crunchy texture. Went down a treat with 10 dinner guests - all plates completely cleared.

    I used dill instead of parsley with good results. You don't really need the veg stock or salt as halloumi is very salty.

    I've changed the recipe following the comments. So we had peppers stuffed with bulgur, and the bulgur was mixed with fried fresh mushrooms, leeks. Fantastic!
