The tastiest halloumi recipe
First of all: what exactly is halloumi? It is a traditional, unripened Cypriot goat’s cheese. Best known worldwide as ‘grill cheese’ because of its crispy crust. Due to the unique protein structure of halloumi, this cheese can be fried, baked or grilled, without the inside melting. And so you get such a delicious, almost crispy exterior. Halloumi is rich in protein, and therefore very popular with vegetarians.
Due to its salty taste, halloumi is delicious in fresh salads, for example. For example, you can also mix halloumi into one of these healthy pasta dishes or pasta salads, or use it in your risotto. Also very tasty? Halloumi through the couscous.
