Best Halloumi And Zucchini Frittata Recipes

HALLOUMI AND ZUCCHINI FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a small, ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add zucchini and a pinch of salt and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add chopped mint and dill, and cook 1 minute more.
• Beat eggs with salt and pepper in a small bowl. Pour into the hot skillet with the zucchini and briefly stir. Cook without stirring to allow the bottom of the frittata to set, about 2 minutes. Use a spatula around the edges of the skillet to ensure that the frittata isn't sticking as the bottom starts to set.
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Lay the slices of Halloumi on the top of the frittata as the edges start to set. Place the skillet under the broiler until the top of the frittata is fully set and cheese is slightly browned, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately or at room temperature.

ZUCCHINI FRITTATA

• Preheat oven to 350°. Whisk together eggs and salt., In an 8-in. ovenproof skillet coated with cooking spray, heat oil over medium heat; saute onion and zucchini until onion is crisp-tender. Pour in egg mixture; cook until almost set, 5-6 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese., Bake, uncovered, until cheese is melted, 4-5 minutes. If desired, sprinkle with pepper.

ZUCCHINI AND HALLOUMI FRITTERS

Steps:

• Coarsely grate the zucchini and squeeze out as much liquid as possible in your hands.
• Combine the zucchini with the spring onion, haloumi, flour, eggs and dill, and season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Heat the oil in a large, heavy-based, preferably non-stick pan, form fritters from the mixture (by using heaped teaspoons full of the mixture for each fritter), and cook in batches for 2 minutes each side, or until golden and firm; and drain on paper kitchen towels.
• Cut each slice of lemon into quarters or eighths, depending on the size of the lemons, so that one piece can be placed as a triangle on top of each fritter.
• Top each fritter with 1/2 a teaspoon of yoghurt, a triangular-shaped piece of lemon and a small sprig of dill.

GRILLED HALLOUMI AND MINTED ZUCCHINI SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high and clean and oil the grate. (Or preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.)
• Marinate the zucchini in 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, the lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside for at least 30 minutes. In a separate dish, brush the sliced halloumi with 1 teaspoon of the olive oil. Peel the onion and cut it into 1/2-inch wedges through the core to hold each wedge together. Marinate the onion in 1 teaspoon olive oil and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Grill the zucchini until it has dark grill marks and is tender. Toss immediately in a bowl with the garlic and mint; then set aside. Grill the onion wedges, turning once, until they are slightly charred on the edges and a bit softened but not totally limp. Grill the halloumi until softened and marked by the grill.
• Slice the baguette lengthwise, leaving one side slightly attached. Brush with the remaining teaspoon of the olive oil. Cut crosswise into four even segments. Distribute the zucchini, halloumi and onions evenly among the sandwiches.
