Grilled Halloumi and green asparagus skewers

500 g | fresh green asparagus |
250 g | Halloumi cheese |
Dip
2 tbsp | orange juice |
1 tsp | orange zest |
1 tbsp | white wine vinegar |
2 tbsp | olive oil |
1/4 tsp | salt |
freshly ground | black pepper |
1/2 tsp | SteviaSweet Crystal |
Serve with
soaked wooden skewers | |
small salads or cress | |
Soak the Halloumi in cold water. (This reduces the salt content in the cheese.)
Remove the woody ends of the asparagus, then cut the remaining asparagus in half. In a pan, bring salted water to boil and cook the asparagus for a few minutes. Drain the hot water and then briefly rinse the asparagus under cold water.
Allow the Halloumi to drain and cut it into eight evenly-sized pieces. Put two pieces of Halloumi and six asparagus pieces on each skewer. Combine all ingredients for the dip.
Grill the Halloumi and asparagus skewers for about 2 to 3 minutes on both sides or until the cheese is hot.
Plate the skewers and top with the orange dip. Then garnish with salad or cress.
