A recipe found in the UK's Independent newspaper. Ingredients:
4 red peppers, roasted whole until softened |
200 g halloumi cheese, sliced into 4 pieces |
1 lemon, juice and zest of |
1 red chile, finely chopped |
2 teaspoons fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried oregano |
4 olives, cut into slivers |
Directions:
1. Skin the peppers if you prefer them that way, although this is not necessary if you can't be bothered.
2. Open out each grilled pepper by making a cut down one side and trim the tops and bottoms off so you have a strip.
3. Sprinkle over some lemon zest and juice, divide the chilli, oregano and olives between them.
4. Place the halloumi on the pepper and roll the pepper around the cheese.
5. Secure with a cocktail stick and press down with the palm of your hand so they flatten slightly.
6. Heat the barbeque and cook the peppers on both sides for 5 minutes or until they start to char and the cheese is softening and browning at the ends.
7. You can do this inside on a griddled frying pan or under your oven grill as well.
