Elevate fish kebabs with a subtle spice blend for a delicious lunch or dinner option.
Ingredients:
  • 20.00 ml fennel seeds
  • 20.00 ml celery seeds
  • Pinch of salt
  • 3 (about 200g each, 2cm thick) boneless skinless salmon steaks
  • 3 (about 180g each, 2cm thick) swordfish steaks, skin removed
  • 40.00 ml finely chopped fresh continental parsley
  • 2 tsp finely shredded lemon rind
  • 60ml (1/4 cup) olive oil
  • 2 bunches asparagus, ends trimmed, diagonally cut into 3cm pieces
  • 200g haloumi, drained, cut into 1cm cubes
  • 1 x 80g pkt baby rocket leaves
  • 21.00 gm fresh lemon juice
  • 11.80 gm Dijon mustard
  • 40.00 ml drained chopped capers
  • Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions:
  • In a small frying pan over medium heat, toast the fennel and celery seeds until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and crush the seeds in a mortar and pestle until finely ground. Season with salt.
  • Heat up your barbecue or chargrill on high. Cut the salmon and swordfish into 2.5cm cubes, then thread them alternately onto skewers.
  • Start by heating 2 tablespoons of oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the asparagus and cook for 2 minutes until vibrant green and tender crisp. Next, transfer the asparagus to a bowl. In the same pan over medium heat, add the haloumi and cook for 1 minute until golden brown. Combine the cooked haloumi with the asparagus and rocket, gently toss together, and set aside. Finally, whisk the remaining oil, lemon juice, mustard, and garlic in a small bowl.
  • Brush the kebabs with a flavorful oil mixture and generously sprinkle with aromatic spices. Grill for about 4 minutes on each side, or until they are beautifully charred and nearly cooked through.
  • Pour the dressing over the haloumi salad, then add a generous sprinkle of capers. Taste and season with freshly ground pepper. Gently mix everything together to blend the flavors.
  • Divide the salad among plates. Arrange the kebabs on top. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and lemon zest before serving.
