KATHYS FRIED HALLOUMI CHEESE WITH LIME AND CAPER VINAIGRETTE



Kathys Fried Halloumi Cheese With Lime and Caper Vinaigrette image

A starter for 6 or light meal for 4 with French/pitta bread We had this as a delicious starter at a friends house, and I begged her for the recipe, I cant wait to try it!! I'm guessing at the amount of halloumi, but basically you want to have about four 'fingers' per person, as a starter. The dressing was marvellous! I love halloumi but have never tried making it, well, thats now going to change :D

FRIED HALLOUMI CHEESE WITH LIME AND CAPER VINAIGRETTE



Fried Halloumi Cheese with Lime and Caper Vinaigrette image

This is a great recipe to have up your sleeve for the unexpected vegetarian. Halloumi arrives in sealed plastic wrapping and has a reasonably long shelf-life, which means that you can always have a pack tucked away in the fridge. If you can get hold of some Greek olive oil for the dressing and eat this outside in the sunshine, the scent and the flavours will transport you to the Aegean in moments.
