Oil Free Spicy Halloumi

Oil Free Spicy Halloumi Ingredients

* 2 Halloumi packs x 225g (we used herb & chilli infused ones in our recipe)* 225g plain flour* 200g Panko Golden Breadcrumbs (any breadcrumbs work for this recipe)* 3 Eggs (optional)* 1 Tsp Paprika* 1 Tsp Salt* 2 Tsp Cayenne Pepper* 2 Tsp Garlic Powder* 2 Tsp Onion Powder* 1 Tsp Carom Seeds (optional)* 1 Tsp Oregano

Method

1. Cut the Halloumi cheese blocks into long rectangular shapes to mimic fries (or any shape you prefer). Set aside.2. We need to set up a station of 3 shallow bowls for the flour, egg wash & breadcrumbs to coat the Halloumi fries.3. In the first shallow bowl whisk the eggs & put the Panko breadcrumbs in the second bowl.4. In the third bowl, add the plain flour, paprika, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, carom seeds & oregano & mix.5. Now dip each Halloumi piece in the flour, then the egg wash (optional) and finally the breadcrumbs m.6. Set them on a tray lined with Parchment paper.7. Then cook in air fryer (air fryer settings may differ depending on air fryer). We cooked at 180 degrees for 15 mins or until the fries are golden & crispy (these can be fried or baked too if you prefer).8. Serve it 2 ways like we did with sweet chilli sauce & peri peri Mayo – decorate with chillis, spring onions & pomegranate & ENJOY !

Top Tip

* Freeze the Halloumi first so it makes it easier to cut into shape & freeze after coating before cooking to hold shape.
