Equipment

  • Contact grill
  • Cutting board
  • Sharp knife
  • Brush
  • Grater

Ingredients

  • 250 g halloumi
  • 2 red bell peppers
  • 4 large soft wraps
  • 150 g tzatziki (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 handful arugula
  • Fresh mint leaves
  • 1 lemon
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Freshly ground black pepper

How do you make a grilled halloumi wrap with roasted pepper and tzatziki?

  1. Preheat the contact grill to medium heat.
  2. Slice the halloumi into pieces about half a centimetre thick. Cut the pepper into wide strips.
  3. Brush the halloumi and the pepper strips lightly with olive oil.
  4. Place the pepper strips on the grill and grill them for 3 to 4 minutes until they're soft and have nice grill marks. Remove them and set aside.
  5. Grill the halloumi slices for 2 to 3 minutes. They're done when golden brown and firm to the touch. Don't leave them on too long, or they'll become tough.
  6. Warm the wraps briefly on the grill, about 30 seconds per side, until they are lightly toasted.
  7. Spread a generous layer of tzatziki on each wrap. Divide the grilled pepper and halloumi over them. Add a handful of arugula and some fresh mint leaves for a bright note.
  8. Grate some lemon zest over, squeeze a lemon wedge over them, roll the wraps tightly and serve immediately.

This recipe works best with a contact grill that's hot enough to really sear the halloumi instead of cooking it slowly. Those grill marks aren't just for show: they add flavour. Make sure your grill is well preheated before the halloumi goes on, so you get that crispy crust straight away.

Want to turn this into a full meal? Serve the wraps with a simple cucumber salad or a few olives on the side. You can also make the grilled peppers a day ahead and store them in the fridge. That saves time on a busy weekday.
