Halloumi is pan-fried in olive oil and finished with fresh lemon juice and dried oregano for a tangy, salty, and savory meze. Serve with crusty bread for mopping up the pan juices.

1 (8.8 ounce) package halloumi cheese, cut into 8 slices
1 large lemon, juiced, or more to taste

CYPRIOT FRIED HALOUMY CHEESE (SAGANAKI HALOUMI)



Cypriot Fried Haloumy Cheese (Saganaki Haloumi) image

With gluten free option. A very quick to prepare tasty meze. We enjoy this as a delicious breakfast item or it could always be a snack! I serve it with pita bread but a crusty bread would be very good. Modified from The Complete Middle East Cookbook by Tess Mallos, Cyprus section.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 8m

Yield 4 , 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 ounces haloumy cheese (or 250g called "haloom" in Arabic)
flour, for coating (To be gluten free I use a mix of white rice flour and half the amount of tapioca starch)
olive oil (best to use unrefined)
1 lemon, cut in wedges
crusty bread (or pita bread or to be gluten free, rice crackers)

Steps:

  • Cut cheese into 1/4 inch slices, dip in water and dredge in flour if desired (I do like it this way).
  • Heat enough oil in a small frying pan to cover base, fry cheese until slightly golden on each side.
  • Squeeze some lemon on top and serve with rest of the lemon wedges and a crusty bread or some pita to dip into the lemon flavoured oil.
