CRISPY FRIED MARINATED HALLOUMI {GLUTEN FREE AND KETO}

Advertise

Versatile halloumi cheese works so well with spices: add interest with chili, lime and garlic. Gluten Free and Keto Friendly.

It takes a marinade very well. Here, we’re using a classic combination of chili, garlic, and lemon or lime juice. Let it absorb the flavours of the marinade for a few hours, and then cook. Dust in corn starch, fry until it’s crispy on the outside, and serve with your favourite salad leaves.
