I have been contemplating to buy a grill...even researched on a few...only to put off the purchase...but when my good buddy Siggy announced Monthly Mingle- Grill it ..i decided to initially invest in a stove top grill pan before i spend more moolah on an outdoor one. Well..the purchase for a stove top grill gave me more trouble than i thought!...why you ask...well all the stores carry 'cast iron' grill pans..which is a huuuge no-no on my list..coz i refuse to baby sit cookware....or the non-stick one's cost me an arm and a leg..till i finally went to bed bath and beyond where i got a non-stick one for $50.00..which is cool to me....so here i am madam..an entry for your event.I know..it is a day late...but ;)
Ingredients:
Eggplant - 1 medium
Asparagus - 1 bunch
Halloumi - 4-5 oz
Marinade:
Olive oil- 1/4 cup
Garlic Chutney powder - 1 tbls
Goda masala - 1 tbls
Salt - to taste
For the dressing:
Olive oil - 2 tbls
Lime juice - 1 tbls
Garlic chutney powder - 1tsp
a pinch of salt
whisk well...and keep aside
Method:
1. Cut the eggplant into rounds and marinade the eggplant and the asparagus for 30 - 60 mts.
2. Grill the above and cut into medium pcs. Do not make it into bite sized.
3. Toast the halloumi (i used a griddle for this..as halloumi tends to break) till it crisps up.
4. Plate the veggies...top it with halloumi and drizzle the dressing on top.

Do you know how much work it is to include this "late entry" in the round up??? The nerve of some people... hpmmmmmph... I wish stupid blogger had some emoticons, so that I could express my actual emotions.... (stupid blogger = the blogging platform.. Stupid blogger in this particular instance does not mean the actual blogger herself.. )
Anyways, all is forgiven because this picture looks pretty good, and because of that other thing... you know ... the friendship thing. :)
oh and forgot to say, Cast Iron is great for meat, but I can never get my vegetables to grill right on my cast iron pan, non-stick grillpan to the rescue... :) I think you chose wisely... :)
want to taste the eggplant on the bottom..got to try it with garlic chutney powder..
i will see whatever u blog..dont worry about it going not well in blog world:)
Hey good to see you Rajitha... :) I've not tasted Halloumi so far but that dish you've made looks so classy and tasty... lovely entry.
That looks almost like meat! You'll probably make a good plating artiste!
When I saw the pic I said wow! its really a very nice pic and beautiful presentation. Nice recipe.
Rajitha grilled veggies look so nice..
Holloumi cheese is simply perfect for the bbq! I love simply stacking it in between tomatoes and aubergines and then wrapping it in aluminum foil then putting the whole thing on the grill. Thanks for your entry!
nice hot recipe.check my blog for a surprise
This looks really good! Eggplant on the grill is just the best. And you can't lose with cheese!

I think that it is perfectly normal and acceptable to get bored with blogging. And when you pop in with a delicious post like this, it totally makes up for the absence :)
