Steps:
- Sprinkle both sides of the halloumi with the oregano. Heat the oil in a non stick frying pan, then briefly fry the halloumi on both sides until golden. Meanwhile, heat the flat breads over a naked gas flame for a few seconds on each side to warm them. (Alternatively you can do this in a large frying pan.)
- Halve the peppers (removing any stray seeds) and thickly slice, then add to the pan with the aubergine and olives. Heat through, squeeze over two of the lemon wedges and season well. To serve, divide the mixture and the parsley sprigs between the wraps, and top each with a lemon wedge for squeezing over.

Steps:
- Rub each potato with a little oil and salt, then wrap in a double layer of foil.
- Pour the oil into a bowl and stir in the mint. Add the halloumi and toss until well coated in the minty oil. Wrap each piece in a strip of pepper. Cut four lengths of foil about 1cm wide and wrap one around the middle of each parcel to hold them together. You could use skewers instead, but be careful not to split the cheese.
- Heat the barbecue. When the coals glow red, put the potatoes directly on them. Cook for 30 mins, turning halfway. Unwrap a potato and check if it is cooked through. If not, rewrap and cook more, checking every 10 mins. Alternatively, bake in the oven at 200C/180C fan/gas 6 for 50 mins-1 hr.
- Meanwhile cook the pepper parcels on the barbecue or a griddle pan for 3-4 mins each side or until the pepper chars and the cheese melts a bit. Remove from the grill and unwind the foil or remove the skewers. Split the potatoes, add butter if you like, then lay a parcel in the centre of each. Add a squeeze of lemon and scatter over some parsley to serve.

- Roast the peppers in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes, until tender and beginning to char around the edges.
- Serve warm.
MERGUEZ WITH HALLOUMI AND FLAME-ROASTED PEPPERS
This is another easily assembled sausage dish, but slight lighter all told. Not that it wouldn't fill up a tableful of hungry eaters, but nothing can compete with sauerkraut for putting hairs on chests, and that sort of general bolstering. I keep packets of halloumi cheese on perpetual standby in my fridge, and the peppers I keep in jars in the cupboard. But you could always use a packet of frozen char grilled peppers if you have them. Indeed, if you slice them thinly enough, you can use fresh bell peppers. Merguez is my spicy sausage of choice here, but chorizo has a longer fridge life if that's a consideration. Anything you can buy vacuum-packed can only help here, too.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Place the sausages into a low-sided roasting pan (this makes the cooking time quicker).
- Slice the halloumi into 1/4-inch slices and then lay them on and around the sausages in the pan.
- Take the peppers out of the jar and also strew them around the sausages and cheese, cutting them into smaller slices and pieces as you go, then drizzle over the oil. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, by which time the sausages should have browned and the cheese colored in places.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.

Remove the pan from the oven and immediately cover it tightly with aluminum foil. Set aside for 30 minutes, or until the peppers are cool enough to handle.
- Remove the stem from each pepper and cut them in quarters. Remove the peels and seeds and place the peppers in a bowl along with any juices that have collected. Discard the stems, peels, and seeds. Pour the oil over the peppers. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
ROASTED RED PEPPER & HALLOUMI PARCELS
This comes from a supermarket's food club magazine. I love halloumi and I love grilled food, so I'll have to try this. I posted it here for safekeeping and also because it fits so well into the ZWT 2006. It's easiest to remove the skin of the peppers by placing them under a grill or directly onto a gas burner until the skin is black nd bubles. The place in a plastic food bag and set aside for an 30 minutes to one hour. Now the skin should come off easily. Cooking time does not include the time it takes to skin the peppers.

Steps:
- Slice the halloumi cheese into four thick slices.
- Lay four of the pepper quarters onto a chopping board or any other clean surface, with the (what used to be the )skin side down, spread with the tapenade.
- Place a slice of halloumi on top and sprinkle with basil, salt and pepper.
- Place the other pepper quarters on top and press down lightly.
- Brush with a little olive oil and fry in a griddle pan or place on your bbq until the peppers begin to char and the cheese starts to soften. It should take about 5 minutes on each side.
Tips:
- Choose ripe and flavorful bell peppers. Look for peppers that are firm and have a deep, vibrant color. Avoid peppers that are bruised or have blemishes.
- Roast the bell peppers until they are soft and slightly charred. This will help to bring out their natural sweetness and flavor.
- Use a good quality halloumi cheese. Halloumi is a semi-hard cheese that is popular in Cypriot and Greek cuisine. It has a high melting point, making it perfect for grilling or frying.
- Slice the halloumi cheese into thick slices. This will help to prevent it from becoming too dry when cooked.
- Season the halloumi cheese with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as paprika, cumin, or oregano, to taste.
- Wrap the halloumi cheese slices in the roasted bell peppers. You can use toothpicks or skewers to secure the parcels.
- Grill or fry the halloumi parcels until they are golden brown and crispy. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Serve the halloumi parcels immediately. They can be enjoyed on their own or with a side of tzatziki sauce, hummus, or pita bread.
Conclusion:
Roasted red pepper and halloumi parcels are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be served as a main course with a side of salad or roasted vegetables. The combination of sweet roasted peppers and salty, savory halloumi cheese is sure to please everyone.
