Method
- Put the honey, crushed chillies, lemon zest and juice in a bowl. Microwave for 20 secs or until runny; stir and set aside.
- Alternately thread the halloumi cubes and cherries onto 8 skewers (soak in water for 10 mins if wooden).
- Add ¼ of the mint leaves to a bowl with 1 tbsp of the hot honey, the olive oil and some black pepper; brush over the skewers.
- Put a griddle pan over a high heat until smoking hot. Cook the skewers in batches for 5-6 mins, turning regularly, until charred.
- Drizzle over the remaining hot honey and scatter with the remaining mint to serve.
Tip: To barbecue over charcoal, light about 30 mins before you want to cook. Wait until the flames have died down and the coals are white.
