Pour mixture over couscous, stir once and cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap. Set aside for 10 mins. Uncover and fluff couscous with a fork. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the dressing, half of the walnuts and half of the spring onions. Season. Transfer to a platter.
• Step 5 Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook haloumi for 2 mins each side or until golden and crisp on each side.
• Step 6 Top couscous with vegetables and haloumi. Drizzle remaining dressing over vegetables. Scatter with dill, parsley, mint, remaining walnuts and spring onions.
