Crispy Halloumi with Honey (Print)
Golden, crispy halloumi cheese cooked to perfection in an air fryer and finished with a sweet honey drizzle.
# Ingredients:
01 -
1 (8 oz) block halloumi cheese
02 -
Olive oil spray or 1 teaspoon olive oil
03 -
Honey for drizzling (optional)
# Directions:
01 -
Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (190°C).
02 -
Cut the halloumi block into ½-inch thick slices. Lightly coat both sides of each slice with olive oil, either by brushing or spraying.
03 -
Place the halloumi slices in a single layer in the preheated air fryer basket, ensuring they don't overlap.
04 -
Air fry at 380°F for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through with tongs for even browning. The cheese should be golden and crispy. For extra crispiness, extend cooking time by 1-2 minutes.
05 -
Transfer immediately to serving plates. Drizzle with honey if desired for a sweet contrast to the salty cheese.
# Notes:
01 -
Halloumi cheese has a high melting point, making it perfect for air frying. It develops a wonderfully crispy exterior while maintaining a soft, squeaky interior.
