It will release some liquid, don’t flip yet, wait till the excess liquid has evaporated then check the underside if it is browned to your liking then flip. The second side will cook in about half the time as there is no more liquid to be released.Once out of the pan, as a little pinch of salt and a big squeeze of lemon juice and then tuck in.Other ways to use HalloumiGrate into vegetable fritters, it’s especially good in pea and mint frittersUse in a curry as a substitute for Indian PaneerCube, cook, and use to top, poutine, the delicious Canadian combination of fries, squeaky cheese curds, and gravy.Coat long strips in flour that has been mixed with some Dukkah, shallow fry until golden brown, dip in herb flavoured yoghurt – Yum!Try it in a burger.We hope you love our Little River Estate Halloumi as much as we do and would love to hear how you like to cook it.
