Mushroom, Halloumi & Yellow Pepper Skewers with Mint Salsa Verde
Serves 4
Ingredients
¼ cup (60 ml) olive oil
1 punnet (20g) fresh mint leaves (save a few leaves for garnish)
1 punnet (20g) fresh parsley
1 clove garlic, finely grated
grated rind and juice of a lemon
salt and pepper
250g Portabellini mushrooms, whole or halved
about 250g halloumi cheese, cubed
2 medium yellow peppers, sliced into squares
Method
1 For the salsa verde: put the olive oil, mint, parsley, garlic, lemon rind and juice and some salt and pepper into a small blender. Blend to a smooth pulp. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
2 For the skewers: assemble the skewers by arranging chunks of mushrooms, halloumi and yellow pepper together. Braai over hot coals or bake in a very hot oven at 220°C for about 10 minutes until golden. Drizzle with salsa verde and serve at once.
