Halloumi -what do I do with it?!

[Natalie123]

Does anyone have any recipe ideas for halloumi cheese? I've some in my fridge but don't have a clue what to do with it. I have a feeling I am supposed to grill it but I'm not sure! Does it need to be cooked?

Halloumi

Here in Cyprus we grill or bbq it just for a couple of mins till lightly brown and serve it on top of salad or cous cous, or grill some lean bacon and serve it with salad in a pitta bread. don't season as it can be quite salty

enjoy!!

I usually grill it and add it to salads or crumble it on top of a hearty soup. Sometimes I'll use it to stuff a chicken breast with crushed garlic and pine nuts.

Stuffing for mushrooms and/or peppers:

Mince together an onion, several mushrooms, and a carrot, with herbs. Or any other veg you have handy and like, really...

Stuff halved peppers or big mushrooms. Lay a slice of Halumi cheese on top of each half, and bake in the oven for half an hour.

Hi All, I tried the haloumi last night, it was lovely, thanks for your suggestions. Steff - I didn't have much to stuff the peppers with so in the end I roasted it with peppers and squash. I had it with a bit of pasta, it was very yummy. Will definitely be eating more haloumi in the future
