Description:

Yesterday's Formula One Grand Prix race in Bahrain was exciting to watch. My husband has been following F1 for many years and the lucky boy actually got to see the Melbourne Grand Prix live! He never misses one unless it happens that the race is well past his bedtime (time zones). Anyway, I usually make some sort of appetizer for hubby to munch on whilst watching the race. Halloumi is a white cheese made from goat's and sheep's milk. It has a distinctive layered texture, similar to mozzarella, and has a salty flavor. This is an easy snack to make not to mention delicious!

Ingredients

200g halloumi, sliced into 4

red bell peppers

lemon, zested and juiced

red chili, finely chopped

tsp chopped oregano

black or green olives, sliced or chopped

Directions

Grill or roast peppers until they soften (enough to be able to wrap around the cheese). Remove from heat and cover with plastic warp. After the peppers have cooled, remove skin. Open each pepper and trim insides and tops. Place a slice of halloumi in the center. Sprinkle with lemon zest and juice. Divide chili, oregano and olives between the peppers. Tie with damp kitchen string and flatten slightly. Grill on BBQ on both sides for 5 minutes or until the peppers begin to char.

The Culinary Chase's Note: I love all the flavors happening in this little bundle! The lemon softens the saltiness of the cheese while the chili gives the peppers a bit of a bite, but not too much to overpower.
