Ingredients

400ghalloumi, cubed
2 / 2bell pepper and zucchini
4pita bread

Instructions

1

Thread the halloumi cubes and vegetables onto skewers, alternating them.

2

This gives the cheese space to char on all sides rather than sitting pressed against vegetables.

3

Grill over medium-high heat for about 8 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are charred and the halloumi is properly golden, it firms up as it cooks, so do not be afraid of good colour.

4

Warm the pita briefly on the grill, then wrap the skewer contents inside with a generous spoonful of tzatziki while everything is still hot.
