Halloumi

MidLifeCrisis_3

I bought a block of halloumi cheese while it was on offer. Usually I make veggie skewers marinaded and grilled/bbq, but I'd like to try doing something different with it and wondered if anyone has any delicious recipes or ideas for halloumi that they'd recommend and would like to share.

Thanks in advance :cheesy:

I absolutely love halloumi, normally I serve it fried or grilled in a wrap, with roasted veg and chicken.

Or I pop sour cream, rocket and sweet chilli sauce in the wrap with the halloumi oh it's amazing!

Cut the block of Halloumi into slices and fry them.
Cook and slice a pitta bread along one edge to make a pocket.
Put in rocket, humous, and 2-3 slices of the fried halloumi.
Add a squeeze of lemon juice.
Bite and listen to your teeth squeak.
Enjoy!

We love Delia's Fried Halloumi Cheese with Lime and Caper Vinaigrette.

Dry the block of cheese and slice into eight. Lightly coat in seasoned flour and fry in olive oil for one minute each side. Serve with the dressing poured over.

The dressing is made with juice and zest of one lime/1 tbsp white wine vinegar/1 tbsp drained capers/1 chopped clove of garlic/1 tsp grain mustard/1 tbsp chopped coriander/2 tbsps olive oil/ salt and pepper.

Whereabouts is Halloumi on special offer please? Feel like I must have this soon!

Halloumi and Roasted Vegetable Pie - You could use whatever vegetables you had to hand and change the pastry to one you can make (or one on offer).

Good House Keeping has a recipe with filo pastry - I couldn't post the link as a new user.

Yum thanks, I especially like the wrap idea with sweet chilli and sour cream as I have all of those things in the house. Yum would never have thought of the veggie fish and chips or pie either and they too sound really good. I also discovered a recipe on BBC good food where you sprinkle it with chives, wrap it in pancetta/bacon and bake which sounds delish.

Thanks again

Marinade it in your favourite burger sauce along with a large potabello mushroom (the size of a burger) Grill them and serve the mushroom with a big wedge of cheese on top, in a burger bun or pita This is one of the veggie options at Nandos haha.

Beer batter it and serve with chips. Delicious veggie alternative to fish and chips!
