In a small pot, combine the rice and water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 40 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest, still covered, for 5 minutes.
While the rice rests, heat a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the halloumi slices in a single layer. Cook for 2 minutes, flip, and cook for 2 minutes more until deeply golden on both sides. Remove the halloumi from the pan and set aside. Done when deeply golden on both sides.
In the same skillet over medium heat, add the black beans, cumin, and salt. Stir for 3 minutes until the beans are heated through and fragrant.
Fluff the rice with a fork and place it in a shallow bowl. Top with the warm beans, seared halloumi, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber. Drizzle the lime juice over the entire bowl before serving.
