Tip

Cooking indoors?
Cook on a griddle for 3-4 mins until charred.

Method

  1. Mix olive oil and rosemary in a non-metallic bowl. Grate the zest and squeeze the juice from ½ lemon, then add to the mixture. Season to taste. Stir in halloumi to coat in the marinade. Cover, then leave for 15 mins.

  2. Cut the other ½ lemon into 4 wedges, then cut each wedge in half. Remove the halloumi from the marinade and thread onto metal skewers with red onion, lemon wedges and courgettes. Barbecue for 5-10 mins, turning occasionally and brushing on any leftover marinade. Serve with houmous and couscous.
