I had this very interesting meal at an open air restaurant in Hermanus recently. Kebabs on a nifty table top barbecue thingy which I wish I owned, with a butternut stack side dish.
Restaurant meal with nifty Coal BBQ gadget
Nevertheless, I had to recreate the butternut and haloumi stack at least, seeing that I am not allowed to do a table barbecue in an apartment…..
Butternut disks
I simply cut the butternut in disks and fried it with pumpkin spice in butter.
Lovely Haloumi
The haloumi can be baked but I dusted the cheese with flour and fried it in shallow oil. Do not over fry as you will end up with rubbery cheese.
Stack the lot!
Stack the lot and top with fresh rocket and drizzle with lemon juice. Lovely with anything or lovely on its own!
My version of the stack with chicken trinchado

My blues!
My sister blogged about the Milnerton Market on nowathome and we walked (and talked) the market from top to bottom last weekend. Of course I had to add to my collection(s) by descending on the white and blue table. Very happy with my loot!

From the photos you have fried that haloumi to perfection. I love the plates! Willow pattern are so interesting, they can be slightly different yet go together so well.

Thank you, just love haloumi. The willow pattern is great, I have a collection with different patterns and use all together. Main thing is to use them, such a waste just to display them don’t you think.

oh yum yum! What a coincidence 🙂 I just posted a haloumi recipe last week, but this take on preparing it by dusting it in flour is new to me – and absolutely fabulous!

Thanks. I have tried it without the flour and also delicious but there is a definite taste change for me this way. I can eat haloumi in and on anything as it is…..
