Method

step 1
Slice the halloumi into large chunks and thread onto three skewers. Light the barbecue. Brush the skewers with your chosen glaze and, when the flames have died down, cook for 1-2 mins on each side (or, cook in a griddle pan set over a high heat). Brush with the remaining glaze and cook for another 1 min on each side.
