Haloumi kebabs


Serves: 4

Ingredients:
2 packets haloumi cheese
1½ red onions
1 red capsicum
10 small button mushrooms
metal skewers
juice of ½ lemon
olive oil
freshly ground salt & pepper
1 heaped tspn thyme leaves
1 red chilli, seeded & chopped
1 punnet cherry tomatoes, halved or quartered
juice of 1-2 limes
2 tbsp chopped coriander
olive oil spray


Method:
Cut cheese into cubes and then cut 1 red onion, capsicum and mushrooms into similar sized pieces. Carefully thread on to skewers.

To make the marinade, whisk up lemon juice, ¼ cup oil, seasonings and thyme. Pour over the top of the skewers and set aside for about 30 mins, turning every now and gain.

To make the salsa, mix together ½ chopped red onion, chilli, tomatoes, lime juice, seasonings, a splash of oil and coriander. Taste for seasoning.

Then grill skewers on a lightly oiled, preheated ridged grill (or BBQ), brushing with marinade as you do so.

To serve, mound salsa on individual plates and top with skewers and a garnish of coriander sprigs.
