Stanna shared a recipe for grilled Halloumi cheese, which made a lovely lunch for us one day!!
Ingredients:
An 8-ounce package of Cyprus Halloumi cheese, cut in 3/8-inch slices
1/2 teaspoon of olive oil
For the garnish
fresh rocket leavesfreshly ground black pepper
oregano or mint leaves
4-5 cherry tomatoes cut in half
balsamic vinaigrette
Preparation:
Preheat a nonstick frying pan over high heat.
Place the halloumi slices on a plate with the olive oil and brush lightly to coat both sides of each slice of cheese.
Sear the cheese in the pan, 1 minute on the first side and 1-2 minutes on the other side. It will smoke (open a window), and form a deep brown crust. The cheese should soften but no liquid should escape - poke with your spatula to test - but it will not melt.
Place fried cheese on a plate and garnish with pepper, herbs, tomatoes, and vinaigrette.
