FRIED HALLOUMI CHEESE WITH LIME AND CAPER VINAIGRETTE
2 halloumi cheese blocks, about 600g
30ml (2tbsp) flour seasoned with salt and pepper 30ml (2 tbsp) olive oil or butter
Vinaigrette:
1 lime, zested and juiced
15ml (1 tbsp) white wine vinegar
20ml capers, drained
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
7.5ml (1½ tsp) wholegrain mustard
20ml chopped fresh coriander leaves
30ml (2 tbsp) extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Garnish:
A few sprigs of coriander
Drain the halloumi and pat dry. Cut into slices. Make the vinaigrette by mixing all the ingredients together. Dust the halloumi in flour, then fry until golden brown in the hot oil or butter. It cooks very quickly so take care not to burn it. Place the cheese on a plate, drizzle with dressing and garnish with coriander. Serve hot.
