Ingredients

Special Tools


Ingredients

  • 10 oz halloumi cheese
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • vegetable oil (for frying)
  • toppings of your choice (e.g. pomegranate seeds, crushed chili, mint...or even bacon)
  • sauce of your choice (e.g. chili sauce, za'atar, sour cream) 

Directions

  1. First, cut the halloumi cheese into 10-12 thick sticks (think thick carrot sticks)
  2. Fill your pan or deep fryer with enough vegetable oil to soak the fries and turn heat to medium high.
  3. Mix the flour and paprika until it is combined evenly.  Coat the cheese sticks in the mixture.
  4. Carefully place the coated cheese sticks in the heated oil for 3-4 mins, or until golden brown all over (note: the oil should be hot enough so it sizzles as soon as the cheese is placed in it)
  5. Place the fries on a paper towel for a minute to soak the oil.  Then, transfer to a plate and add your toppings.  
  6. Dip your fries in the sauce and enjoy!
