  • 1 rote Chilischote, fein gehackt (optional)
  • 1 Dose (400 g) gehackte Tomaten
  • 2 EL Tomatenmark
  • 1 TL Garam Masala
  • 1 TL Korianderpulver
  • 1/2 TL Kreuzkümmelpulver
  • 1/4 TL Kurkuma
  • 1/4 TL Paprikapulver (edelsüß)
  • 1 Prise Zucker
  • 200 ml Kokosmilch (oder Sahne)
  • 100 ml Gemüsebrühe (oder Wasser)
  • Saft von 1/2 Zitrone
  • Frischer Koriander, gehackt, zum Garnieren

Instructions

  1. Cut the halloumi and vegetables into even pieces and marinate them. In a large bowl, mix olive oil, garam masala, turmeric, chili powder (if used), salt, and pepper. Soak the halloumi and vegetable cubes in the marinade for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  2. Skewer the marinated halloumi and vegetables onto grill skewers for an attractive presentation and easy grilling.
  3. Heat olive oil or ghee in a large pot and sauté the finely chopped onion until golden brown, releasing a warm, inviting aroma.
  4. Add garlic, ginger, and optional chili. Once the aroma resonates, incorporate the chopped tomatoes and tomato paste.
  5. Stir in garam masala, coriander, cumin, turmeric, paprika, and a pinch of sugar. Let the mixture simmer on low heat for 10 minutes to combine the flavors.
  6. Pour in coconut milk and vegetable broth, allowing to simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Mix in freshly squeezed lemon juice and grill the halloumi skewers until golden brown.
  8. Serve the grilled skewers in the delicious sauce over basmati rice or with warm naan bread, garnished with fresh coriander.

Notes

Use tofu or paneer as a substitute for halloumi for a vegan option. Adjust spices according to your heat preference.
