Ingredients

halloumi 2 x 250g blocks
watermelon 1 small
ground coriander 1 tsp
sumac 1 tsp
ground cinnamon ½ tsp
cayenne pepper 1 tsp
black peppercorns ground to make 1 tsp

Method

Step 1

Soak 16 wooden skewers in cold water for 30 minutes or use metal skewers.
Step 2

Break each block of halloumi along its natural split, then slice each ¹/2 into good-sized chunks. Cut the watermelon into equal-sized pieces. Alternately thread the halloumi and watermelon onto the skewers. In a small bowl, mix together the spices with a good pinch of salt, then sprinkle all over the skewers, pressing to stick.
Step 3

Heat a griddle pan over a medium-high heat or cook over indirect heat on a BBQ. Grill the skewers for 2-3 minutes on each side or until charred and the halloumi starts to soften, then serve.
