Ingredients
- 2 blocks of halloumi
- 50 g plain flour
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp garlic granules
- 2 eggs beaten
- 150 g panko breadcrumbs
To serve:
- Sweet chilli jam
Instructions
- Cut the halloumi down the middle where there’s the natural crack.
- Place the halloumi in a bowl and pour over boiling water. Soak for 10-15 minutes.
- Pat the halloumi dry, then place each piece between two pieces of baking paper and roll them out to flatten as much as you can.
- Get three bowls ready, one of flour mixed with the paprika and garlic granules, one with eggs, and the final one with the breadcrumbs.
- Coat the halloumi in the seasoned flour, then the beaten eggs, and finally the breadcrumbs.
- Heat some cooking oil in a large frying pan over a medium to high heat, shallow fry the halloumi until they are golden and crispy on both sides.
- Pop them onto kitchen paper to get rid of any excess oil. Serve with some Greek salad and some sweet chilli jam for dipping, then enjoy!
