Here’s a simple and delicious way to make pan-fried halloumi 🧀🔥
Ingredients
- 250g Halloumi Cheese, sliced into ½-inch thick pieces
- 1–2 tsp Olive Oil or use a non-stick pan
- Optional: lemon wedges, fresh herbs (Mint or Parsley)
Instructions
- Prepare halloumi
- Slice the halloumi and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- Heat the pan
- Use a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add olive oil if not using a non-stick pan.
- Fry the halloumi
- Place slices in the hot pan and cook 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
- Avoid moving too much—let the crust form.
- Serve immediately
- Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top.
- Garnish with herbs or drizzle with honey for a sweet-savory twist.
✅ Tips
- Halloumi doesn’t melt like other cheeses, so it’s perfect for frying.
- Can be added to salads, sandwiches, wraps, or served as a starter.
- For extra flavor, marinate halloumi in olive oil, lemon, and herbs for 10–15 minutes before frying.
If you want, I can also give a recipe for halloumi with honey mustard glaze or spicy paprika, which makes it taste like a restaurant appetizer.
