This recipe takes medium effort.
Step 1
Wash and trim zucchini and cut lenghtwise into evenly thin slices. This is best done with the slicing blade of the julienne cutter set or with the 2mm blade of our vegetable slicer set.
Cut halloumi cheese into 1 cm (0.5 inch) wide fingers.
Step 2
Mix lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper to get a marinade.
Grill halloumi cheese and zucchini slices until tender and well browned. Brush zucchini with the marinade from time to time.
Step 3
Remove halloumi cheese and zucchini slices from the grill and allow to cook a bit. Wrap halloumi cheese with grilled zucchini.
Arrange on a plate and sprinkle with pine nuts, basil leaves and drizzle some extra vergine olive oil. Serve warm.
Bon appetit!
