Honey glazed halloumi is a delicious different and easy midweek dinner idea.

Stuff it into a flatbread or pitta along with a good helping of salad, and if you're extra hungry add a side of fries.

What is halloumi?

Halloumi is a traditional Cypriot cheese made from a mixture of goat's and sheep's milk. Sometimes it is made with cow's milk.

How to grill halloumi

• Halloumi has a high melting point so it can easily be fried or grilled. 

• Remove the halloumi from the packaging and pat dry on kitchen paper.

• Slice into almost 1cm slices, not too thin or it will break.

• Add a little oil to a plate either just the oil or mix it with honey and smoked paprika as in this recipe.

• Add the halloumi slices and turn to coat well taking care not to break the slices. 

• Heat up a medium-sized griddle pan or frying pan and add the halloumi.

• Fry for just a minute or so on each side, any longer and it will go a bit rubbery and it will make a squeaking noise when you eat it - bizarre I know! 😀

What is Greek flatbread?

Greek flatbread or Greek pitta is a soft pocketless pita, making it easy to wrap around your chosen filling.

A soft flatbread made with yeast and is commonly served with souvlaki, gyros, salad and dips.

It's so much softer than regular pitta bread, for this reason, I often use them when I make my lamb koftas recipe.
