Halloumi, a grilling cheese from the eastern Mediterranean, is made by slicing a firm cheese with a high melting point and gently searing it on a grill. Drizzled with lemon and olive oil, it makes a quick, simple appetizer.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Grill the cheese

6 min

Cook the cheese slices in a lightly oiled grill pan over medium-high heat for 2–3 minutes per side, until they develop golden grill marks.

2

Plate and season

3 min

Arrange the cheese on a plate and drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice. Sprinkle with thyme and black pepper.

3

Serve

Serve immediately while hot.

Reminder

Best eaten hot; the cheese firms up as it cools, and reheating is not recommended. Allergen: Based on the ingredient list, this dish contains milk and dairy. Check packaged product labels for other allergens.
