Serves: 2

2011-11-16

Ingredients

  • 1 block halloumi cheese (250g)
  • 12 cherry tomatoes
  • 2 lemons
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed

For the couscous

  • 150g couscous (TIPIAK)
  • 2 oranges
  • 2 tbsp chopped mint
  • 2 tbsp chopped chives
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (OLITALIA)
  • Hot water
  • Fresh seasoning

Method

Cut the halloumi cheese into 1 inch pieces, and cut 1 lemon into slices. To make the marinate, mix together the oil, garlic and lemon juice from the second lemon. Thread the cherry tomatoes, halloumi cheese and lemon slices onto skewers, and brush all over with the marinate. Season with pepper and leave for 30 minutes while you prepare the couscous. Next, place the couscous in a large bowl. Squeeze the juice from 1 of the oranges and add to the couscous. Add the hot water, cover and leave the couscous for 10 minutes to absorb the liquids. When ready, add the zest of the second orange, chopped mint and chives, olive oil and fresh seasoning and mix well. To cook the skewers, warm up a hot plat or griddle pan and grill the halloumi skewers for 5-6 minutes, browning on all sides. When cooked, serve the halloumi skewers with the orange and mint scented couscous.

Ingredients

  • 1 biċċa ġobon halloumi (250g)
  • 12 tadam ċirasa
  • 2 lumijiet
  • 2 mgħaref żejt taż-żebbuġa
  • 1 sinna tewm mgħaffġa

Għall-kuskus

  • 150g kuskus (TIPIAK)

  • 1 mgħarfa żejt taż-żebbuġa extra virgin (OLITALIA)
  • Ilma jaħraq
  • Hwawar friski

Method

Qatta’ l-ġobon f’biċċiet u l-lumi f’biċċiet. Għall-immarinar, ħallat flimkien iż-żejt, it-tewm u l-meraq tat-tieni lumija. Daħħal it-tadam ċirasa, il-ġobon u l-biċċiet tal-lumija l-oħra fl-istikek tal-injam u idlikhom bit-taħlita tal-immarinar. Ħawwar tajjeb bil-bżar u ħallihom joqogħdu għal nofs siegħa sakemm tipprepara l-kuskus. Poġġi l-kuskus fi skutella kbira. Agħsar waħda miż-żewġ larinġiet u żid il-meraq tagħha mal-kuskus. Żid ukoll l-ilma jaħraq u għatti l-kuskus għal 10 minuti sakemm jixrob dawn il-likwidi. Imbagħad, żid il-qoxra maħkuka tat-tieni larinġa, in-nagħniegħ u l-kurrat imqatta’, iż-żejt taż-żebbuġa u l-ħwawar friski, u ħallat tajjeb. Biex issajjar il-kebabs, saħħan hot plate jew grilja u ixwi l-kebabs għal 5-6 minuti sakemm jiħmaru min-naħat kollha. Meta jkunu lesti, servi l-kebabs mal-kuskus tal-larinġ u n-nagħniegħ.
