Rustic halloumi and mushroom kebabs with charred caps and torn oregano — **TooGut pick**Flexible, practical, genuinely delicious.

Mushrooms shrink as they cook, so pairing whole small caps with torn larger ones creates a kebab that looks and eats naturally. A little lemon goes on before grilling; the rest waits until the browned surfaces are safely formed.

One step at a time

Let’s cook.

Tick each step as you go. Built-in timers keep the important moments close.

Keep the mushrooms varied

Leave small mushrooms whole, halve medium ones and tear the largest into two or three pieces. Pat the halloumi dry.

Season lightly

Mix oil, garlic, lemon zest, 1 tablespoon juice and half the oregano. Toss through the mushrooms and halloumi.

Thread without packing

Alternate ingredients on eight skewers. Leave a little space around mushroom caps so their moist sides can brown.

Barbecue until deeply coloured

Cook over medium-high heat for 9 to 11 minutes, turning each face as it releases. Expect different mushrooms to wrinkle differently.

Brighten at the end

Squeeze over remaining lemon juice and tear over the remaining oregano immediately before serving.
