This recipe is from our new book, The Barbecue Collection. If you can't find kecap manis, boil together 1/2 cup (125 mL) granulated sugar, 1/3 cup (75 mL) soy sauce and 2 tbsp (30 mL) fancy molasses until sugar is dissolved.
This hearty dish makes a tasty warm salad for dinner, but it's also delicious served cold as leftovers. Broiling the halloumi on the same pan used to roast the sweet potatoes helps keep pots and pans to a minimum, but, if you prefer, you can sear the cheese (without any added fat) in a nonstick skillet.
Impress family or guests with this special-occasion roast, which is truly quick and simple to make.
