I’m attempting it today
I’ve only ever seen it grilled. Either in a skillet or on an actual grill for BBQ with a little bit of oil. Though, I have never even had the cheese myself. I’ve wanted to try it ever since I first heard about it and the way it doesn’t melt.
Pretend it’s fish. Season and grill or saute.
Fry on a grill or pan with medium heat to brown. Don’t go too thin on the slices. Drizzle with honey.
I have dyspraxia so I’m not being funny when I ask this. How thin do I slice it? Do I push it round in the pan while frying?
Not at all, I used a pretty non specific term close to a cm, or slightly under half an inch works better than a thinner slice. You want the outside cooked and firm with a bit of bite, but internal should be soft and have the mouth feel of squish.
Chilli flakes in the honey works great and it can also be used on a salad, pomegranate seeds work well as a good contrast of colour and flavour. Sweet and salty combined.
Douse them in olive oil after slicing rather than spraying the grill or pan. But either works.
If you push it too much while it’s soft, it will tear. So just flip once works best. If you flip one and it’s sticking, wait for the others to firm a bit more. If you find they are burning, turn down the heat but keep the time the same for the other side.
Mate this is really simple to understand and follow thanks so much!
I do it cubed in a stainless steel pan with olive oil, turning just as each side is browned and releases from the pan. Toss into select beans and veggies with pesto.
Thanks how hot do you have the pan?
Medium or maybe just above. Can’t be too hot or it will smoke the olive oil.
I actually just did this recipe yesterday and it turned out great. Just leave it in the oven until the halloumi turns gold with a bit of brown and it’s done
Looks great but alas paywall
Added a couple options to bypass it :)
Yes, fry it, best is on the grill, but shortly in the pan is also very tasty. Don’t overcook or burn it!
