Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C.
- Bring a large pan of water to the boil, add the spaghetti and cook for 8-10 mins until just tender but not completely cooked. Reserve a 300ml of pasta cooking water, drain and set aside.
- While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil in a separate pan and fry the onion and garlic together for 4-5 mins until beginning to go translucent.
- Add the dried herbs, carrot and courgette and cook for another 5 mins. Season with salt and black pepper and add the reserve pasta cooking water and the chopped tomatoes. Stir well and add the cooked pasta to the sauce.
- Tip the mixture into an oven-safe dish and lay the sliced halloumi over the top. Bake for 18-22 mins until the halloumi is golden brown and the sauce bubbling. Serve with the salad.
Tip: If not needing the pasta bake to be vegetarian, try adding the other 100g pack bacon lardons and a pinch of chilli flakes for an Amatriciana-style pasta bake.
